Advice? Don’t compare yourself to others because that’s a losing battle. Get in tune with your own abilities and evaluate yourself based on what you know you are capable of – thinking of your progression, not perfection. Also, establish a Board of Directors for yourself. Surround yourself with mentors, sponsors, and peers who have your best interest at heart, understand your goals, and can provide encouragement and resources to help you accomplish them.
