People think that it's draining to excel, but I beg to differ: it is much more tiring to be mediocre. I should know.
Why is it that "being average" comes so easily to me? If I didn't hate mediocrity so much, perhaps I would learn to embrace it...perhaps this is who I am. But instead, I spend the whole day giving myself lectures (sometime, out loud...which is fun), trying, like a coach, to pump myself up for the next endeavor at greatness. I'm not one of those people who is constantly failing miserably. I try. I try hard. Sometimes I even succeed. But it seems that there are always a billion other people stepping up to take the gold. I'm a perpetual bronze. Or one of those kids that always gets honorable mention...except it's from life.
