This is the QUICKEST way to RUIN your motivation… 😭🥲

COMPARING YOURSELF to others!!! 👎

Who else is guilty of this? 😅If I could put up 10 hands up I would 💁‍♀️

Building P3prmnt over the past few years has been the biggest blessing, but also the biggest challenge of my life.😮‍💨

And if there’s one thing I’ve learned the hard way, it’s this:

👉 You CAN’T build YOUR dream if you’re too busy looking at someone else’s.

There have been so many moments with P3prmnt where I’ve found myself looking around thinking:

→ “Why aren’t we bigger yet?“
→ “Why does it look so easy for them?“
→ “Am I even doing enough?“

The truth is...

Comparison ROBS you twice.👎

First of the joy of what you have ALREADY built. And second of the energy you COULD be putting into making your dream even bigger.

Every brand, every business, every person is running a COMPLETELY different race, with a different set of tools, experiences, and timing.

When I stay focused on my vision, thats when I find all my best ideas come, when the best collabs come and when I’m actually LOVING the building process ❤️

So just a reminder your ONLY competition is the YOU from yesterday.🫶

Here are some tips for how I stay in my own lane:

✨ 1. Build a vision SO BIG, you can't get distracted - From day one, P3prmnt was never just about products. I built with company for me and in memory of my dad. And the values I carry with quality and the creative direction gives me tunnel vision. I’m NOT here to copy. I’m here to create!!! ✨

✨ 2. Focus on your actions, NOT just the outcomes. I’m 23 so I feel like everyone is SO much further in the journey than me. But every single day, I remind myself - I can’t control if a post goes viral etc. But I CAN control how my brand is presented and how hard I show up each any every day. Success is just the byproduct of staying consistent even when no one's clapping yet!!! 🙌

✨ 3. Curate your online Space like BENEFITS me - If certain people or accounts make me question my journey, I block them ahaha!! 😂 You need to be surrounded by people who inspire you — not people who make you doubt myself. 🌎

✨ 4. Remind yourself - social media ISN’T the reality!!! Building a brand is messy, expensive, exhausting. People show you the wins, not the 400 failures it took to get there. And trust me, I know a lot of people fake what they post - so keep that in mind! 👀

Stay close to your why and keep in your lane!💕
