This is exactly what I needed to read today!

Being surrounded by people I admired led to comparison and ultimately, inaction and low self confidence. My mentor also told me that I will overcome it as I continue doing hard things but your breakdown of intrinsic motivation along with the advice being humble to have the curiosity and playfulness of a child really hit home!

Thank you for your writing!
