...someone walks into the room and they are faster, smarter, better looking, more educated, more charming, more secure, wittier, and all-around more capable than you are, and you begin thinking about how you might help them succeed and make a difference.
This kind of scenario happens all the time and the gut reaction of far too many of us would be to try and find flaws in this new person in order to, in some weird way, maintain our status and feel better about ourselves.
But maybe, just maybe, this is your day to become a multiplier, and to begin giving away (not selling) your very best so that it can travel far beyond your limited reach. You see, the new person might seem way more capable, but they don't have the wisdom and insight that can only come from your story and your experience.
And I've done the math. You will always have a far, far greater impact on the world if you not only regenerate good things in other people, but if you insist that they, too, do the same.
