What’s in a word? A word like ‘mediocrity’ gives the impression of a person or persons engaged in producing run off the mill output that is neither here nor there and basically of no real value to anyone.

If any of us fall in this category, if anyone is occupied in work, business or study or any other activity and is just churning out a mediocre performance it is time to turn the tables and strive for excellence.

The challenge to overcome mediocrity is not new. But how does anyone overcome mediocrity? The answer basically lies in motivating and taking a forward approach in ensuring that we perform to the level of excellence in whatever is aspired to be done.

In a nutshell, when mediocrity characterizes our lives it is high time to take things on to a higher level of accomplishment by aiming for perfection. But while to accomplish perfection is impossible, it must be our target.

If a person sets his or her mind on doing a task, that task must be done to the best of our ability. Otherwise it is best not to venture to perform a task if it is going to be shoddy or of poor or inferior quality.

Always embark on a task and aim to do your best and take pride in whatever is hoped to be achieved and there will be no regrets by anyone and instill in those around us to also put our best foot forward in everything done in life.
