Settling.
It’s what we do on the path to mediocrity. It’s what we do when we lack confidence. It’s what we do when we don’t want to guide our own life.
It’s what happens to the best of us. It’s what happens to the worst of us.
We settle for certain people in our lives. We settle for a particular job. Neither of which provides much joy.
We settle for “good enough,” for “next time I’ll do it better/right/with more flare,” for “it’s not my job.”
Don’t let nature fool you. A settled lake may look beautiful, but a settled lake is more likely to be frozen over come winter, a settled lake you wonder if it contains any life.
It’s those who strive for better, who never settle, who make it through the seasons. Fortunately for us, we don’t have to settle like the water does. Every day we have the choice to settle or not.
Stay Positive & Shake Well
