What Others Aren't

What Others Aren't

“To be successful at anything, the truth is, you don’t have to be special. You just need to be what most people aren’t: consistent, determined, and willing to work for it.” — Tom Brady

?

This idea that NFL GOAT - Tom Brady shares simplifies success for everyone. It reminds me of the old adage: When a bear is chasing you, you don’t have to be faster than the bear. You don’t even have to be the fastest in the group. You just have to be faster than the slowest person in your group.

The same principle applies to achieving success. You don’t need to be the best in your own mind or constantly compare yourself to others at the top. You just have to be willing to put in more effort, more consistently, than most people are willing to give. Success often rewards persistence over perfection.

In closing, many do not realize how close they came to success in their goal because they simply stopped short.
