THE ART OF BEING AVERAGE
You are welcome here if everything about you is average.
It took alot to a girl to accept the fact that being average is amazing. Average look, average height, average mind,average personality. Everything about you is not perfect but average– this is what I heard since I was a kid. Usually I get really upset by the fact that nothing is more than average in me or sometimes I hurt my feelings by saying the same to myself.
We met a lot of people in our life on a daily basis. Some Get impressed with us, others might find flaws in us. One thing I used to hear on a daily basis is that –Simran, stop thinking big because you have an average mind, you are not that intelligent. Dream small So you Can achieve them. Did I listen to them?YES.
Honestly at first I used to listen to all this alot but now I realised one thing – I can’t change the way I’m. Yes if my looks are average I can’t change them,I can’t change the mindset I have or the personality I carry. So what will I do while carrying all that pressure in my mind?
YOU ARE SUFFICIENT WITH ALL THE QUALITIES YOU HAVE. STOP THINKING TOO MUCH AND STOP CRITICIZE YOUR WORTH.DREAM BIG AND STOP LIMITING YOUR DESIRE BECAUSE OTHERS TOLD YOU TO
I realized that it was me who was making it a big deal. I don't know what is bad about being average that I hated being so many years ago. Yes some people are super smart and super intelligent,they achieve everything in less time. But so many people are also there with average qualities, they get what they want because they are determined and consistent towards their dreams.
Things change as we grow up. So at the age of 25,(when I took the risk of writing with my average thoughts),I finally realised that being average is really a blessing for me.
Yes you heard it right – “being an average is blessing and accepting this fact is the best thing you can do to yourself.”
The generation we are living in is so fast. Each and every person is trying hard to become the perfect personality with the perfect mindset. People are all set to beat each other in the name of being perfect.
Look around, all you find will the people who are competing hard to beat each other. People will take all the mental pressure to prove themselves perfect. Those who are not so able to handle that pressure end up judging their worth.
Now don't take me wrong, I know competition is important to make the best win,But what about all the others?
In India , lakhs of students are preparing to get government services but thousands get selected.
So many youngsters are there with an intelligent mindset and smart ideas but end up getting 9 to 5 jobs because of lack of opportunities.
All over the world people are filled with immense talent .They have mindset,ideas,skills,passion, dedication and everything that is required to achieve something big. But only few of them will reach the destination, rest will get the tag that – you are an average for something big.
And you will take this statement as a certificate of your ability and end up questioning your worth. Now,Tell me one thing why the hell people took their failure as an end?
You tried your best but failed. So try again, try something different, try whatever you want to try. Vast opportunities are there for you to try. Your failure is not an end- it is a hope to try again to try something different.
“Don’t put your ability in a small pond,just dive into the vast ocean of opportunities and trust me one day you will get the most unexpected gift with your average personality.”
You are born to fulfill your duties. Duties You have for yourself for the people around you. Duties which require your best . Perfect or not, nothing matters. If you want you can achieve everything with your average skills.
