Mediocrity

Of all things, it’s the mediocrity that bothers me most. But as the time rolls, I am getting strangled by more and more of the same thing. Just like everybody else, I wake up in the morning, have breakfast, commute to office, face traffic, slog for 10-12 hours, come back home - mentally tired, waste some time in social networking websites and descend into a sleepless night. Same thing repeats the next day. Sometimes I go to the movies to catch some mostly mediocre movie and eat at some mediocre restaurant. 

With each passing day, I am more and more becoming the common man, आम आदमी। A life with mediocre happiness, mediocre sorrow, mediocre problems and their mediocre solutions, mediocre pains, mediocre reliefs, mediocre achievements, mediocre disappointments.

आज कुछ तुफ़ानी करते हैं  - Let’s do something extraordinary today.

I say that dailly. But do nothing about it. But some simple things can be done to increase the odds of getting out of this mediocrity.
  • Write something..
  • Learn to play some musical instrument.
  • Learn a new language.
  • Capture some awesome moments from day to day lives.
  • Read an awesome book.
Let’s start doing that; shall we?
