“The successful warrior is the average man, with laser-like focus.” – Bruce Lee
When it comes down to it, we are all basically the same. I’m not noticeably different than my neighbor, who isn’t noticeably different than the neighbor across the street. Sure, we may have different strengths and weaknesses. But for the most part, there isn’t an innately massive gap between one person’s skill set and another person’s skill set. How the gap grows is what we choose to focus on. One person may focus on science in a lab setting while the other focuses on becoming a master carpenter. After years of practice and experience, the gaps between one person’s innate skill set and the other person’s developed skill set can be dramatic.
Are you choosing to excel in any areas of life? If so, what are you doing to improve in those areas? Are you studying and applying what you’re learning or do you just go home and mindlessly do nothing all night? Take a moment to reflect on what you’re doing with your life. There is no right or wrong answer here unless you are unhappy with your present situation. If you are, you can’t sit there and expect life to get better. You need to focus on becoming the successful warrior.
