The ideal we have in mind is an ever-moving target that seems to be perpetually out of reach. When we measure ourselves against that ideal, we’re in the gap. But when we measure ourselves against our previous selves, we’re in the gain. On this episode of the show, Dr. Benjamin Hardy rejoins us to discuss this concept as outlined in his latest book (co-authored with legendary entrepreneur coach Dan Sullivan), appropriately titled The Gap and the Gain: The High Achievers’ Guide to Happiness, Confidence, and Success. Here, we’ll talk about the psychological benefits of measuring our current self versus our former self, how we can use our own criteria to define progress, how to recognize the confidence-building gains we make, why our own intelligence can work against us and keep us stuck in the gap instead of focusing on these gains, and much more.
