Lewis Howes, host of The School of Greatness, goes solo in this episode to talk about watching friends get married and buy houses, or build businesses fast, while you feel stuck. He's blunt about it: you're putting their 10 or 15 years next to your first two, and that's an unfair fight.

Lewis remembers being broke in his mid-20s, sleeping on his sister's couch and working an unpaid internship in Columbus, Ohio. On one of their walks, a mentor told him, “Money comes to you when you're ready for it.”

About a year later the money started coming, and Lewis saw that he would have blown it if it had come any sooner.

So stop measuring yourself by someone else's timeline. Keep putting in the work, and let go of the expectations that have been hurting you.
