#7

During one of my many lost moment in thought, I started to think about striving for goals and achieving or failing them. I've often seen only two types of people; the one who exceeds beyond expectations and the one who is too lazy and/or scared of failure. I think many will agree with me that there is more of one than the other.


No, there are not 100 Albert Einstein's, so you picked the wrong type.


It's the scaredy-cats, the what if-ers and the ones who say all the things they want to do, but never actually take enough steps to get there. Is it because of the fear of failing that holds us back? It is proven that the human species is greatly influenced by how they are seen be others. How people perceive us has taken control and has hindered our ability to be able to achieve greatness and their  is only a small minority that actually push their limits and ignore the stares and remarks. If we all sat down and thought about it, it is only us to blame for reaching our mid 40's and saying "what have I done with my life". Is it better to get there and not be pointed at or ridiculed because you played the mediocre majority in society, or is it better the risk failing and learning from it and then pushing on to something amazing? Why do we choose plain vanilla?
I think people forget that we are a living miracle, so why don't we act like it?


My vow to myself is to start taking my steps to greatness.


If your reading this now, I ask you this.
Will you wake up tomorrow and choose not to be mediocre, and make yourself awe-inspiring, or will you run and continue your monotonous life you wish could be different?


Your move.
