Q：How can l stop being average?

A:Mentality

Think differently from average people.

Truly believe that you are different. Truly believe that you are a cutabove the rest. Truly believe that you are made to succeed.

1.              For a start, stop comparing yourself with others. You areway better than that. Focus on yourself. Strive to constantly challenge andbetter yourself. Strive to be the best that you can be. 

Yes, some people may be smarter or richer and success seems to come easily tothem. But who cares? Just focus on your own sh*t and keep getting better. Don'twaste your time being jealous of others.

2.             Stop giving excuses for your inadequacies. Stop saying things like "I willnever achieve XXX because I don't have this or that." If you need / lacksomething, just find a way to get it. Make it happen. Noifs, no buts.

3.             Have a clear and specific goal. Know what you want to achieve. If I gave you a wish rightnow, you should be able to rattle it off in an instant. People with goalsapproach life with more drive and determination than people without it. Takesome time to think carefully about what you would love to achieve. Goalsare what turns average people into superhuman.

Actions

Act differently from average people.

1.              Average people give up when they are tired or don't feel like going onanymore. They don't put in a second effort. Be different. When you are tired, pushyourself one last time. Squeeze that last ounce of your strength. Goslightly further and work slightly harder than average people. In thelong run, it will make a whole lot of difference.

2.             Average people are not consistent. On a good day, they will feel motivatedand they do stuff. On every other day, they just idle and wait for things tohappen. Be different. Whether it's a good day or bad day, you justgrind and work hard. F**k motivation!

3.             Average people waste time - our most precious resource. While waiting foran appointment or public transport, they do stuff that do not add value. Suchas scrolling  Instagram and visiting Facebook several times a day, readingcelebrity gossip news. 

Be different. Spend your waiting time doing valuable stuff. Suchas reading an e-book and making notes, read the news and develop your owninsights. Successful people know that time is precious andtheymake good use of it by doing things that matter.
