I have recently realized this is a problem for me. I run an online business in a very niche market, so anyone in this industry knows one another. Many of my competitors came along long after me, but had start up capital that helped to catapult them way ahead of me in most areas. My company is doing ok, growing slowly and steadily.

I know if these other companies weren’t in my periphery all day long, I’d be happy with where we are. But instead, I constantly feel like I’m falling behind. I know 100% this is a “me” problem, but I’m just curious if anyone else has ever dealt with this and how you snapped yourself out of it.

    One of my favorite quotes. Find a way you’re better and don’t be shy about it. I got that opportunity on Friday with a mutual contact with my main competitor. He asked me the difference between us and I was able to shift his business, affiliated businesses and referrals to me.
