Dear Young Professional,

No two professionals are the same.

Do not compare your career path and progress with others. It’s easy to compare your progress with those of your friends, colleagues, and peers.

Understand what works for you and make it your focus.

You are unique, and so is your career.

The only person you are contending against is yourself. Don’t beat yourself too hard. Aim to improve daily. It will add up over time.
