Straight A's or Average
Sometimes I think an "Average Joe" will be more happy in life than a person who is always told how special they are, strived for perfection and later .. life is far from perfect. May be coz the expectations were too high? or may be there is no such thing as perfect.
There is such thing as Perfect. This is my view. As per me, life should be strived to make perfect. Only then we would know if its worth trying or not.If you wont try how would you if it is or was worth?
Isn't it.
Confusing?
Not Sure but yes, we have to try. This is what we humans have thats better than any living being. Try, try again..
Now the next question is - does it apply to our kids as well. When I a kid, my parents made be get the best grades. I was supposed to be the best in the class. I was suppose to remember everything all the time. With printing as marvellous as typewrite.
It is good. My printing is beautiful. I try to do better. I try to learn more all the time.
I dont tell my kids to keep on studying all the time, but they know I expect that whatever they study, read they should know it. Instead of just making them sit and read.
On average - Average Joe, is more happy coz they dont know any other life. They are happy with average things in life. The exceptional person might seem restless but at the end he is happy as well. Coz he knows he is striving for what he love.
Average or Exceptional - Do what comes from heart and makes you happy.
