Quotes About Adequate

MWM | Adequate
Go Beyond Average = Adequate means to be average or lukewarm. Are you settling to be adequate? You were not born and created to be adequate. You were born to be exceptional.


Give Just a Little Extra Today
Commit To Rising Above = No one wants to be average—stuck in the middle. View being average as something to conquer and rise above. Today, if you consider yourself average, do something above average. Wherever you are in life, increase the positives of who you are by doing a little extra.



https://youtu.be/unbzOVDg2Sc
Go Beyond Adequate, Be Exceptional = The word adequate is often paired with average, and people often decide to be adequate in life. So many people settle for adequate, and learn to exist with this state. We were not born and created to be adequate, we were born to be exceptional. Go beyond adequate, it is a better way to live. 


https://youtu.be/aElBLFJzL9s


This belongs with average - it's simply existing. Do more, be more, and strive for better.

MWM | TIMING
Don't hold off until tomorrow—today matters—do it now. = Timing is important—the time you have now is the only time you have to act on. People often wait for the right time to make the right decision, but waiting causes us to miss some great opportunities. We overexaggerate yesterday, we overestimate tomorrow, but we underestimate today. Don't hold off until tomorrow—today matters—do it now.



The Difference Between a Foul Ball and a Home Run | MWM
Practice Your Timing, In Leadership = In his book, The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership, John Maxwell discusses the Law of Timing, which says that when to lead is as important as what to do and where to go. Success is a lot about timing. This is a difficult law to learn and you can improve your timing with practice! 



https://youtu.be/BnH8Qbk2D-E
"Do it now" = If there is one thing we've learned during these times, it's that time is precious. Every day is filled with new challenges, new excitement, and new adventures. The lesson here is: live in the moment, stop allowing time to pass. Act today on whatever it is you want to invest in - personal growth, new adventures, new businesses, and so much more!
