Are you pushing yourself or going with the flow?

By
Real Estate Agent with Your Town Realty

In today's fast paced society we have a tendency to go with the flow... and that leads us to having an  average mentality, average results, an average life style and with all the negativity now-a-days to have a negative outlook at our jobs, dealing with the public, friends, and life in general.  Or are you pushing yourself past being average and running a lifestyle at your own pace with a desire/goal in focus?  Every night when I go to bed I focus on what I did today to get closer to my goals ( I'm 42 and my goal is to retire at 50) and what I can do tomorrow to coincide with what I did today to be closer to my goal.  Having a positive attitude is a major step to pushing yourself past the lifestyle of average.  When people ask me how am I doing I tell them that I woke up with a heart beat and my day is going great.  Being positive and having goals are what push's people past being average.

Are you pushing yourself or going with the flow?

If you are going with the flow you will never be ahead of the crowd.  Where do you want to be...out front a just part of the crowd?  Excellent read to begin my day!

If you don't do something more, something different every day, the results will be the same as yesterday.

Steve: Great short blog. Going with the flow is lazy and will yield lackluster results. We have to 'think out of the box' and stand out above our competition.

Good point, Steve but I have to admit some days I push and others I flow.
