I have a short message for you today, Friend. A message that might just shock you.
It's okay to be mediocre. In fact, it's NECESSARY if you want to be successful in life.
You can't be the best at everything. Even if you are the best at something, you won't always be. It's impossible to always be at the top.
And if you want to achieve high levels of success in your career and in life, focusing on being perfect or the best (or whatever other language you typically use) isn't what's going to get you there.
Remember: success is about being aligned to what's most important to you so that you're happy and content with yourself, your decisions and your life. And it's also about being willing to learn and grow - always.
You can't have that if you're not willing to be mediocre (maybe even bad at some things).
You'll never branch out or take risks because you'll be too consumed by how imperfect you are. It will inhibit your growth, sap your confidence and lead to stress (even anxiety).
So do yourself a favor and give yourself permission to be mediocre.
Before you go, hit reply and tell me what's getting in your way. What about accepting mediocrity feels hard (even scary)? I'll respond back with a few tips. XO, |
