I've always felt a deep belief that people are meant to do great and marvelous things with the lives we have, but it's hard not to wonder how much of that greatness is lost by settling on doing things that are just "good enough".
It's kind of sad how our lives sometimes unintentionally limit our potential. How comfortability in where we're at and what we do in life gives us a false sense of contentment that we're sometimes too scared to break away from. Too scared to give up. What's even more sad is how most people aren't even aware that it's happening to them until it's too late.
That scares me.
I don't want to live a life of mediocrity. A life of stagnation. I don't want to go through life just being "good enough".
I want to do great things with the time I've been given. I want my name to be remembered by the masses for the things I've accomplished.
I may not know what great things I'll eventually come to do, but I won't be limited by the fear of uncertainty. I will forever push the boundaries in everything I do. Progress in the direction of greatness is better than standing forever still. No matter how "good" it may be.
