Yesterday, I had a discussion
with my editor-for-hire.
I told her
I wanted
to be pushed more.
My goal is to constantly improve
as a writer,
to be my version of ‘the best.’
I need her help to do this.
I’ve always done this
-with teachers,
with business mentors,
with other experts.
I found they wouldn’t push me
if I didn’t ask.
Why?
Because the average person
doesn’t want to be great.
She wants to be… well… average.
We don’t need to be pushed
to be average.
If you want to be great,
ask to be pushed.
If you don’t want to be great
at whatever role you’re currently holding,
find a new role.
