"Being average has become a subtle failure in a world consumed by the
extraordinary. From gold stars in elementary school to “employee of the month”
plaques, and from the curated perfection of Instagram to the race to become
“the best version of yourself,” our culture continually raises the bar for what
it means to be successful, worthy, or even just enough. But is this relentless
pursuit of exceptionalism making us happier, or is it leading to more anxiety,
insecurity, and disconnection?
There is profound peace, purpose, and even beauty in living an average,
unremarkable life. Perhaps it’s time we reclaim that truth."
