Travis Robertson has a great post
on the four phases
to living your mission,
living the life
you’re meant to live.
The first
and most important phase
is believing you have a mission.
“Many people don’t even think
they are called to something greater
than what they’re currently doing.
They’ve settled.
Perhaps you have accepted the lie
that you are “unlucky” or
that you are average.
In your mind,
other people having missions,
or callings,
or a purpose.
Not you.
You feel like you are doomed
to this average life.”
I’m about as average as a woman gets.
I’ve never been top of my class.
I’ve never been the prettiest
or the most popular person.
Even my writing skills started out
as being average.
But I had products
I wanted to see launched
and I had stories
I wanted to see written.
And I quickly saw
that being average was a benefit.
I launched products for average people
and I wrote stories for average people
and amazingly,
that made me extraordinary.
You can be your version of extraordinary also.
First, you have to believe.
