Every one of us likes to think of oneself as extraordinary. We feel we merit a good paying job, the perfect spouse, or desire to be the ideal pal or colleague, just because we suppose that we deserve it. Despite what we think of ourselves, we usually end up being quite ordinary. Here are some reasons on why most of us are stuck in the average rut, along with tips on how to change some basic tenets and have an edge over others. 

You Worry Too Much

Too much worrying is never healthy, as it takes away, both your focus and confidence. Make life happen, and stop worrying about the little things.

You Are Stuck Between Choices

You are always stuck when it comes to making a choice. As indecision grips you, it doesn’t let you go, until the opportunity has passed. All you are left with is regret. Don't let this happen to you again and again. Take control of your life. Everyone likes to be around people who are capable of making quick and independent decisions

Your Casual Attitude

Having a casual laidback attitude towards everything is one of the biggest reasons why you’re average. You should take life seriously, as, if you don’t work hard today, you are bound to repent it later in your life.

Compare Yourself To Others Too Much

Stop comparing yourself to others; everyone has a different personality with different qualities. You might have some qualities that others do not possess, just be happy and accept yourself for who you are.

You Worry About Other’s Opinion

What others think of you doesn’t matter. If you have the right knowledge and confidence in yourself, you will easily sail through. Just have faith in yourself and don’t bother about what others think.

You Follow The Rules Blindly

You irrationally follow rules set by the society that you may not even believe in. Make your own rules and set your own limits, as it's important to grab life by the collar instead of being led around by yours.
