[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 541016, member: 6705"] It may be ordinary - but it's not mediocre. To me, mediocre is giving just enough effort to scrape by. For some people, that is all the effort they can give - which means for them, it's not mediocre. If you are capable of great things without burning yourself out, why wouldn't you at least try? I differ in my opinion. I give 100% every day. Perhaps 60% to work, 20% to my home and other things that must be done, and 20% to my family (which includes myself). Off days? 40% to home and 60% to family. I never give less than 100% total every day. But that doesn't mean I give [I]everything[/I] 100%. There's only 100% of me. I can't give more than I am. Happy. Contented. That's not mediocre. Everyone's success is different. [/QUOTE]
