00:00:04,700 --> 00:00:13,500
Too often, we view life as a competition 
and become disappointed when we compare our 
lives to the growth we see in other people.

2
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:20,700
We forget that the visible growth in others 
didn’t happen overnight. Consider a seed 
planted in the ground.

00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:25,500
Before it bears fruit, it must develop a 
root system that no one can see.

4
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:31,600
That’s why you shouldn’t expect fruit you 
see in other people to immediately manifest 
in you.

00:00:31,700 --> 00:00:36,800
Former NFL quarterback Steve Young had this 
recommendation:

6
00:00:36,900 --> 00:00:44,800
“The principle is competing against yourself. 
It’s about self-improvement, being better 
than you were the day before.”

7
00:00:44,900 --> 00:00:54,600
So today, I encourage you to set yourself 
up for personal growth by becoming less envious 
of other people. I’m Mac Hammond, and this 
is the Winner’s Minute.
