After growth takes place in your life, the best time is usually looking back on that time in life, not while you’re in the middle of it all. Growing in life usually comes with some strain, some pull, some challenging. And sometimes people have to learn things the hard way.
But, here are three reasons why growing is better than never growing at all:
MEDIOCRE.
That’s a scary word to me.
Nobody wants to be mediocre.
People never plan on being mediocre, but somehow in the middle of being in the norm, they look back and wonder how they got there.
I guess there are those that are ok with it.
Maybe it’s that job where you feel like you don’t make a difference in the world.
Well, we’ll soon talk about finding your “genius” in no matter what vocation you’re in.
Your value doesn’t lie in the job that you have.
Maybe it’s not your job. Maybe it’s your routine.
Mediocre people don’t include exercise in their normal routine.
Want to know how I know this?
Look at these obesity stats.
That’s mediocre.
Divorce rates. In church.
That’s mediocre in this world, too.
God has called us to so much more than “mediocre”.
This all takes work, but “easy” is also mediocre.
Do you want to know how not to be mediocre? My challenge to you is to find out what “mediocre” people do and do the opposite.
Tell me, what do you think are some other things that “mediocre” people do?
