I find it very interesting to watch how hard people work at
being average. It is easy to be
average so I don’t really understand why people work at it but they do. Ever
notice how those that choose to be average are always making excuses, it is too
hot or it too cold. They overslept or didn’t get enough sleep. They forgot
their water bottle. They forgot their spikes or their bathing suit and on and
on. They are the ones who cut corners in workouts. I have no tolerance for this. I accept that people have different
abilities, what I cannot accept is not working to maximize the ability you
have. Choose to be the best you can be, don’t accept being average. Give it
your best effort; take some risks, try a little harder. Many are called and few choose - it is a conscious choice. Choose to be the best you can be and
then do something about it, take action, start now, not tomorrow or the next
day. Set a level of expectations that demands reaching higher.
