Why is it that we have
to be excellent? Why can we not be just simple, Ordinary!
From the very start of
our life we are trained to be competing with others. To excel in class, to win
every competition, every battle. Is it really that important to win every
single time?
Winning maybe a great
achievement but being ordinary makes you no less of a human being! If winning
was so important, than out of a class of 54 students, only one wins the race to
be at the top. What happens to the rest 53 students? They stop living their
lives? They give up on all good? They find on purpose for their life?
No! They do find, and
they do excel in life. Maybe they don’t achieve the highest rank in the job or
they don’t win the best employee award. But they do what they love and live
with content. Being ordinary is not a cruse or so. One can be ordinary and at
the same time contribute largely to the world.
I believe being
ordinary is crucial, for it keeps you humble while at the same time lets you do
what you know best. So what, if you don’t win every battle, it doesn’t make you
a loser. If anything, it makes you a learner. Every battle is a platform for
learning, and every loss is a lesson. Winning or losing is not important, what
is important is the fight, the time spent in the process, the journey towards
the end.
It is not how fast you pick the bricks or how many you can pick in one go, it is just the process of steady collection of bricks on your way towards the finishing line, which helps you in building a strong house.
With Love,
