I’ve been reading the GAP and the GAIN by Dan Sullivan and Dr Benjamin Hardy recently.

Briefly, the book discusses our natural tendency to focus on the gap between where we are and where we want to be (comparing to others), our expectations (comparing to our anticipated future selves), and external pressures.

And there is a greater value by focusing on the gains that we have made over time - looking at how we got here from where we started, essentially only comparing ourselves to where we started.

We can also be in the gap when we approach our family members: comparing where they are now to the ideal we have for them in our minds.

Listen to apply in your home - creating a ripple effect for everyone's health.

And... a special guest, my Gigi busts in on the podcast at the end. Enjoy.
