Dealing With Comparison to Other Players

Dealing With Comparison to Other Players

Discipline 1: Mental Resilience — Lesson 10 of 12
Lecturer: Roland Fenwick

Silence lets comparison grow into something much bigger than it needs to be. This session covers measuring yourself against your own history, muting comparison-heavy content when you're low, and talking to someone directly rather than letting it fester.

The three rules

1. Measure against your own history.
2. Mute comparison-heavy content when low.
3. Talk to someone directly.

*The full breakdown — citations, the lecturer's own story, and the discipline's quiz bank — is part of the Spy Academy programme.*
