About this event

You don’t compare yourself to others, right? Well at least not as much as someone else you know.

According to self comparison theory, we determine our own social and personal worth based off of how we see ourselves stacked up against others we view as either better or worse. For most of us, that’s where the problem begins.

This workshop explores how a little comparison can have a big cost on your future success when launching a business or starting a new career.

Life transition moments are opportunities to project forward into the life you want to lead or to retreat back into what is comfortable and safe. Your attitude to comparison can directly impact which option you choose.

Using the experience he has gathered from working with entrepreneurs around the world, this workshop will highlight the opportunities and pitfalls of comparison. This is the perfect workshop for anyone considering launching into a new career or specialty because it is at big moments of change when we are challenged the most.
