Join the LiveJournal Revival!
2021-06-24-002 1200 x 1200

Are you fed-up with garbage, full-of-shit sites where nobody actually communicates, such as Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and Twitter? Do you wish your old friends who've migrated to those sites would return to LiveJournal? The the_lj_revival community has been set up with that aim in mind, and you are invited to join it. If you are already on LiveJournal and still have a Facebook profile, and would like to see more people returning to LJ or setting up accounts here, we invite you to post a link to this community on your Facebook Timeline. If you would like to find out who is still using LiveJournal and make contact with those who are already here, you are invited to copy and paste the 'about me' questions on the profile page and post them with your answers to the community.

Mediocrity obtains more with application than superiority without it. -- Balthasar Gracian

Another element in an extraordinary life is a sort of fearlessness, an ability to invite criticism rather than shrink from or lash out against it. I have one friend who is especially fearless in this way.

I admire that.

Wishing for a personal coach.
It's fitting that the Mediocrity community is small and stagnant, no?
===
Wouldn't that be nice, having a personal coach?

Someone to wake you up at 4 a.m. and make you run along the beach until you became quick and strong, so you could pummel Mr. T. Someone to obsess over your career development, seeing that you make the strongest showbiz connections and shed those standing in the way of your MTV diva success. Someone to seek you out, tell you that you were to lead an enchanted life, and bring you to Hogwarts to learn wizardry.

What do extraordinary lives have in common? Often, there's a coach/mentor/overbearing parent. Often, there's a predestination - an intense talent or a family name.

And I suppose an abundance of money doesn't hurt at all.

But sometimes, none of those are afforded to a person and still s/he becomes the hero. The motivation to get out of a seemingly hopeless situation. A motivation to serve a higher calling. A motivation to break records and exceed all expectations.

Such a independent, internal motivation. Can we all find that inspiration? How does one begin?

We must overcome the notion that we must be regular. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary and leads you to the mediocre.

Just joined, so hey to everyone.

The Man has been keeping me down, so my life's pleasantly mediocre. My car, however, is not quite up to par, and you can rest assured that all will be informed when it reaches a point of mediocrity.

So I'm here.

Anyway, if you're looking for mediocrity, IHOP is NOT the place to go. IHOP is BETTER than mediocre. If you're looking for mediocre food, try Denny's. It is the EPITOME of mediocre dining.
