Ever notice that we default to “climbing the ladder” or “looking up the ladder?” Of course I am referring to life, work, wealth, fill in the blank ________. We want that next corporate position, that larger house or that new Jet Ski – don’t we?
Most of us spend our energy “looking up the ladder” and myopically dial into what others have. This becomes our comparative or our unit of measure on what we don’t have.
I was locked in this world dominated unit of measurement in my own life until I hit some rough waters. Yeah going through divorce and loosing almost everything can definitely changes ones perceptive, but do you know what really made me realize that this was a ridiculous unit of measurement?
