How comparison distorts reality

There are parts of being human that were designed to keep you alive, but they’re not designed to help you scale a business. In this episode, Chris and I talk about the 4 human conditions that sabotage even the most ambitious founders and how to reframe each one so it works for you instead of against you. We break down why chasing happiness will frustrate you, why readiness is a myth, how control quietly creates your ceiling, and why comparison distorts reality. These patterns feel normal. They feel justified. But if you don’t consciously challenge them, they will cap your growth. Get ready to grow into someone stronger than your programming.
