When you look at your competition, it's easy to be sucked into a vortex of negativity. Even though you're in a competitive industry, you don't want to lose sight of the goal and forget why you're there in the first place.

If you can adjust and adapt simultaneously — especially with who is at the top — then that's allowing room for growth both personally and professionally.
