RE: There is neither need nor necessity to wallow in the trough of mediocrity!
When I saw your title and your post, I recalled this little quote,
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It's a constant reminder that it's ok to break out of the expectations of mediocrity, to challenge ourselves without needing the nod of others, to color outside the lines for once and not be worried that we will be frown upon.
Thanks you for the reminder.
What a wonderful quote @maverickfoo! I absolutely love it :)
We really are such powerful creatures, and oddly enough, we use such a small percentage of our brain capacity at any given moment. If we only could harness that power, and not be frightened by it, or as you say, be so concerned about what other's think.
I didn't say it in my post, but I taught at a Fine Arts School and my motto always was to colour outside of the lines...in life. The school basically had the same ideals and the majority of those students excelled precisely because they weren't concerned about what other's thought. I am so thankful to have spent so many years at that school, and watched so many of my students move on to do amazing things with their lives.
Thank you again for an awesome comment!
