Listen "The Gap vs. The Gain"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, JP Warren opens up about one of the biggest mindset traps leaders fall into — living in the gap.He shares his own experiences with comparison — not just to others, but to himself — and how that constant measurement against an ideal can quietly erode joy, confidence, and clarity.JP breaks down the difference between the gap and the gain:The Gap is when we measure progress against where we wish we were.The Gain is when we measure backward, comparing where we are today to how far we’ve already come.That shift changes everything. It replaces anxiety with gratitude, frustration with perspective, and comparison with confidence.Through personal reflection and leadership insight, JP shows how embracing “the gain” helps leaders build resilience, momentum, and connection — especially in slow or uncertain seasons.Key takeaways:- Focus on progress, not perfection.- Measure growth backward, not forward.- Confidence is built by recognizing how far you’ve come, not how far you have to go.Listen now and start leading from a place of gratitude and growth — not comparison.
