Raise the bar

Tuesday, April 23

Having high expectations demands more of you.
Caring demands more of you.
Pursuing scary goals demands more of you.
Seeing what you are capable of demands more of you.

And I would argue a life that demands more of us is not only a life well lived, but the only way to live.

What’s the point in showing up to just go through the motions? Fear will tell you that it’s safer, that you are less likely to get hurt or be disappointed, that you won’t have to deal with failure. But those are all lies. Life is full of those things regardless of the path you choose. And if you’re going to deal with them, it might as well be worth it.

In a world that is okay with settling, choose to raise the bar.
