mediocrity

The tragedy of mediocrity occurs when we fail to see opportunities as blessings from God and see them instead as "jobs" to be done. I truly believe that the main factor determining whether we "thrive" or just "survive" is in how we view the tasks before us. Do we see our jobs and places of work as blessings, as relational opportunities, as a chance to impact lives, or do we see it simply as our job, focusing only on the rules we have to follow and finishing what we need to get done by the end of every day?
