What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received?
At different stages of life, we receive advice—some we forget, but others stay with us and shape who we are. Among the many words I’ve heard, one piece of advice stands out: “Don’t compare yourself with others; run your own race.”
This advice came at a time when I often felt behind. Looking at what others had achieved made me question my own progress. But those words reminded me that life is not a competition. Everyone has a different path, different timing, and different struggles. Comparing myself only distracted me from appreciating my own growth.
Since then, I’ve learned to celebrate small victories and trust the process. I’ve realized that even slow steps forward are still progress. This advice continues to guide me whenever I feel overwhelmed or insecure. It brings peace, reminding me that my journey is mine alone.
Advice is powerful—it can uplift us, redirect us, or give us clarity when we need it most. The right words at the right time can change our perspective completely.
So, I’ll leave you with a question: What is the best piece of advice you have ever received
