I consciously choose to go beyond what is expected of me each day and to be aware of my contribution to the day. We live in a time where the majority feels that we are doing well if we just do what is expected of us. However, the real joy and reward in life lies in stepping up and out and going above what is expected.
Going beyond the call of our duty, doing more... walking that extra mile is what excellence is all about. To do this we have to "get out of the pile" of ordinary, doing only what is expected is for average or under achievers. Rising above average sets us up to live out our potential.
Have you buried yourself in the pile of average achievers? Would you like to achieve more in life but don't know where to start? Can I encourage you that the best place to begin is expecting more out of yourself than others do .... giving more of yourself than required .... helping and serving others more than is necessary. If we only do what is required and necessary of us we set ourselves up to join the pile of ordinary and rarely achieve the extra-ordinary life God created for us. The ball is in our court as to what we want to achieve.
