You Don’t Have to be Freaking Great at Every Darn Thing

<p>One of my favorite anonymous quotes is this:</p> <blockquote> <p>Pleasing everybody is never a responsibility. If they like you for who you are, good. If not, it&rsquo;s their problem not yours. &mdash; Unknown</p> </blockquote> <p>And how true it is!</p> <p>In today&rsquo;s society, the pressure to excel in every aspect of life can be just way too much.</p> <p>We are bombarded with messages from everywhere telling us we should be perfect at work, in relationships, with our appearance, in how much money we make, on and on.</p> <p>But here&rsquo;s the thing.</p> <p>You don&rsquo;t have to be freaking great at every darn thing. It&rsquo;s okay to be average, have weaknesses, and focus on what truly matters to YOU.</p> <blockquote> <p>It&rsquo;s ok to embrace imperfection and choose selective greatness!</p> </blockquote> <p>Why? Because it can help you lead to a happier, more fulfilling life.</p> <h2>Embracing your imperfections</h2> <p><img alt="" src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:875/0*SBKVmqUOWzEcdm8Q" style="height:500px; width:700px" /></p> <p>Photo by&nbsp;<a href="https://unsplash.com/@francisco_legarreta?utm_source=medium&amp;utm_medium=referral" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Francisco De Legarreta C.</a>&nbsp;on&nbsp;<a href="https://unsplash.com/?utm_source=medium&amp;utm_medium=referral" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Unsplash</a></p> <p>Look. Nobody is perfect and that&rsquo;s what makes us all unique and interesting in our own way.</p> <p>Trying to be the end-all-be-all in everything is not only unrealistic but it can be exhausting. It&rsquo;s not sustainable.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/heart-of-expression/you-dont-have-to-be-freaking-great-at-every-darn-thing-4ab3555dc59d"><strong>Read More</strong></a></p>
