"Mediocrity"
Mediocrity... hmmm I am not sure what to say about this other than it is huge. Recently I attended a coaching class and to my surprise this beast lives inside of me. It didn't show itself immediately, it waited. It hid behind many things, many emotions. It dressed up in many costumes but when it revealed itself...wow. When I began to play around with it I recoiled physically as well as emotionally. The flood gates opened and wouldn't stop. I didn't like it, not one bit. I wanted it to go away but it wouldn't. I had to sit with it no matter how painful it got. I didn't like this play date. Not at all.
Much has changed since this encounter, I now know it's name, I can see, and I know how to confront it. I am not letting it bully me around anymore . Having to go to an emotional place that was very uncomfortable and painful has freed me. The tools are now present. Eternal gratitude exists within my heart from being brought here.
" In all humans affairs there are efforts, and there are results, and the strength of the effort is the measure of the result. Chance is not. 'Gifts,' powers, material, intellectual, and spiritual possessions are the fruits of effort; they are thoughts completed, objectives accomplished, visions realized.
The vision that you glorify in your mind, the deal that you enthrone in your heart; this you will build your life by, this you will become." As A Man Thinketh, James Allen
