The fastest way to stop being average is to recognize the possibilities of living with courage and taking action right now in the direction of your dreams. Give yourself permission to pursue what's important to you. Don't just talk about wanting to do things or try a thousand different things and then abandon them.

Your habitual behavior often goes unnoticed because you don't need to engage in self-analysis when undertaking routine tasks. Many people are just going through life. Just like that. Passing through. Letting time tick away. Fast. Letting things happen. Letting every day be just like the day before and the day after. Nothing out of the ordinary. Nothing you read about in history books. Nothing unique. Just average. Can things be different for you? Of course they can. You just need to start taking control of your life right now! Define your identity "The one thing that you have that nobody else has is you. Your voice, your mind, your story, your vision. So write and draw and build and play and dance and live as only you can. " —Neil Gaiman Who are you? What do you stand for? What do you want to be known for? What standards have you set for yourself? Define your most important role in this world and start shaping your reality based on that. You are YOU. Your challenge in life, in fact your life's work, is to become the best possible version of you. Not an imperfect approximation of someone else. Purpose fuels your motivation. What do you look forward to achieving tomorrow, next quarter or in the next five years? Imagine waking up every day excited for what you've set out to accomplish. That passion alone will propel you to the next level. Raise the bar, crush your goals, and make a dent. It's not too late! Many people are living their entire lives without ever standing up and stepping out. But it's exciting to witness the rare few who dare themselves and step out of their personal bubbles to work on acheiving something worthwhile. Most of us live with the stubborn illusion that we will always have tomorrow to do today's work. We consistently hold onto this belief and keep procrastinating until work becomes a heavy burden. Left unchecked, we always default toward a more comfortable path. Your comfortable zone provides a state of mental security. You can understand why it's so hard to kick your brain out of your comfort zone. Malcolm Gladwell once said, "Outliers are those who have been given opportunities — and who have had the strength and presence of mind to seize them." Outliers seize opportunities and run with them. People who realize how little time they have and are driven to make the absolute most of it. Those are the ones who really live the awesome and extraordinary lives. Be an outlier! Master your mindset "Today, you have the opportunity to transcend from a disempowered mindset of existence to an empowered reality of purpose-driven living. Today is a new day that has been handed to you for shaping. You have the tools, now get out there and create a masterpiece." — Steve Maraboli If you've ever failed at reaching any goal in life, the problem could all be in your mind. That's how important your mindset is. Your mind is your most powerful force. The stories you tell yourself and the things you believe about yourself can either prevent change from happening or allow new ideas to blossom. Carol Dweck, Stanford University psychologist once said, "For twenty years, my research has shown that the view you adopt for yourself profoundly affects the way you lead your life. It can determine whether you become the person you want to be and whether you accomplish the things you value." When you begin to master your mindset, you will be able to make new healthy choices, embrace a positive outlook in life, commit to your goals and actually get them done. You will most likely finish what you start and start leading the awesome life you expect and crave. It's within your reach if you can commit to your dreams, goals and visions. Do small things consistently "Be patient with yourself. Self-growth is tender; it's holy ground. There's no greater investment." — Stephen Covey The quest to become a better version of yourself often feels like a roller coaster ride. It's hard. And it's usually so uneven. You can end in failure. But life is a journey, not a marathon, so you always have another opportunity to restart and improve. When you are up for change, you have to start embracing change in small ways. If you want to change your 'life' and not be 'average' then you have to do something different. But aim for small, consistent change. Not rapid change. Small changes that'll make a big difference. It's the only way to be successful at habit change. Self-improvement isn't a destination. You're never done. Even if you have some success, and you want to maintain it, you have to keep doing the things you were doing that got you that success in the first place. The idea is to focus on consistent improvements in your life, every day, no matter how small the step you take to be a better you than you were yesterday. According to Brett and Kate McKay of The Art of Manliness: "Instead of trying to make radical changes in a short amount of time, just make small improvements every day that will gradually lead to the change you want.Each day, just focus on getting 1% better in whatever it is you're trying to improve. That's it. Just 1%. It might not seem like much, but those 1% improvements start compounding on each other. In the beginning, your improvements will be so small as to seem practically nonexistent. But gradually and ever so slowly, you'll start to notice the improvements in your life. It may take months or even years, but the improvements will come if you just focus on consistently upping your game by 1%."
