When Plagued with Mediocre - Push On

When Plagued with 
Mediocre – Push On

Mediocracy sometimes run rampant in our lives.  To paraphrase what a friend of mind once said … “You are a mediocre man looking for a place to happen.”

Ouch.

Let me offer this:

Lucille Ball was told to “try another profession” early in her career.  She kept pursuing acting and comedy instead.

John F Kennedy lost his bid for president of his freshman class at Harvard.  He lost a few other posts for which he tried, but became a great US President.

Steven Spielberg's mediocre grades prevented him from getting accepted to UCLA film school.  He found success in Star Wars and a few other blockbuster movies.

Bob Dylan was booed off the stage at his high school talent show.  He took that mediocre moment and turned it into the great BOB DYLAN.

Mediocre is not a lasting ailment, unless we let it be. 

Whatever may be mediocre in your life for now can become stellar, if you want it to be.

Mediocre is a choice. 

So is high success.


Something to think on,
in about 60 seconds.
