Don't Be An AVERAGE Because AVERAGE Has Become An Epidemic -- Become Extra-Ordinary, Become Stupendous !!
If I look outside my window on 15th Floor, I can see a lot of people. A lot of people trying to fit in this World, a lot of people trying to survive, a lot of people working hard to earn their living, a lot of people working hard but still they are not content with what they have, a lot of people who're highly talented but still hopeless, a lot of people who find themselves average. AVERAGE !!
Average is an epidemic which is spreading over the whole World. Becoming average and then remain average is the new trend among youth of our generation. Most of the people become average and they never want to get over this tag, forever. They believe having fun, travelling, chilling out with friends and spending good time with their family keeps them happy. But until when? There must come a point in their life when they would try to get over this average tag and wants to head over on the path of Greatness and Nobility, but then they would be too late for that.
Toady, people don't want to do creative, they don't want to do something extra-ordinary, they don't want to work on their passion because the journey to their passion is very difficult. All people want today is free money, free comfort, less work-more income, more fun, travelling, going for parties, no responsibilities.
Becoming an AVERAGE nowadays come with a cost, a cost which you couldn't be able to pay later in your life. There's no shame being an average but also there's no pride in it too. You know what the problem is, people watch too much news, they receive news but they don't try to create news. They could make a clap for high achievers but they don't want to become one. Yeah, seeing them walking with pride and having all the luxury in hands, there's always come a little motivation in our brain to become like them, to work hard, to create, to sell and to raise something extraordinary. But that motivation fades away within an hour or two.
People lack actions, people lack vision, the dreams, the goals, the plans and execution of all these things. Becoming an average means becoming too weak. Becoming an average means becoming too shameless because at some point people with power will hold you down until you break.
As far as I have learned, no one gives a shit about anyone. Kindness exist, yes for sure, but for some menial acts. No one is going to give you fortunes under the impression of kindness, no one would give you luxuries, no one would give you love, no one even give you respect after some point of time if you remain an average. Don't become an average, World is already flooded by average people. Become extra-ordinary, become stupendous.
Your destiny in your hands right now, forget your age, forget your circumstances, forget your worries, and work hard today, flow some sweat, invest some sleepless nights, do extra work, walk an extra mile today so that you won't have to live under the hold of others tomorrow.
Become great, become your own Destiny..!!
Thanks for reading..!!!
The sad truth of society is that those at the top innovate and steer the course of humanity towards progress while those at the middle function as the engines that power them. This will always be the case as there always will be imbalances between people.
But the moral message of "You Can Do It!", despite constant repetition in all walks of life in itself, is insufficient because despite all effort expended in becoming something, they are lost in the sea of everybody doing something that they appear to be nothing - nothing special.
And why? Because people generally attempt to become good at what they like doing and become so in the process. Consequently, when you become average, it is because you are good at being average. And being good at being average ensures that you have a secure place in society, that's what most people aim for after all. But being good at being average entails expending resources to become good at a plethora of things that average people do. Everybody goes to the gym at some point, or tries to pick up an instrument or some other trade and the vast majority of them, despite having done so remain average. Why? You probably know why.
Lack of commitment, tried piano for a month, got bored and left. Tried to learn french, got stuck at subject-verb agreement. That is what the average does, they try to do so many things that they just don't end up becoming good at them. You need to focus on one thing and one thing only if you ever want to excel in it and not be average; and spending 2 hours extra every day doing one particular thing on top of you 8 hour job isn't too hard.
To seize your destiny, one must embrace the fact that it is difficult, and once that they have done so, have taken the first step in the long marathon of becoming something greater.
Well said sir. To reach at the heights of success one must focus on one and one thing. expertise can only be achieved through focus. And focus needs consistency and determination.
Thank you @siegellspenst
I never do anything if it can be done by someone else. But for most people, being average gives the greatest chance of success. Aiming higher just means a greater chance of failing in life, so most choose not to.
I loved your philosophy that you don't do what someone else can do. Wish you all the luck @alexander.alexis
Sad but true - is it because we are just happy to be alive or is it because a lot of parents are not teaching their kids anymore that they can be extraordinary. Tis is such a true and good post - resteeming
Thank you mam. I am glad you liked it and learned something from it.
....you sound rather judgemental. I get the impression you call someone average just on appearances but everyone has their own story and fights their own battles.....even Adolf Hitler and I bet we all wish he had remained "average".
