It’s all too easy to get caught up in the day-to-day sea of mediocrity. For some people, being seen as average is a way to avoid bullying. For others, it’s down to their negative connotations of success. Regardless of the reasons, being average does nobody any favours. Being successful isn’t the easiest option, but it is the most fulfilling in the long term. And remember, you define your own success.

I find this quote from Jim Rohn to be particularly inspiring in this situation.

The Challenge

Let others live small lives,
but not you.

Let others argue about small things,
but not you.

Let others cry over small hurts,
but not you.

Let others leave their future in someone else’s hands,
but not you.

Jim Rohn
