April is here again and it’s time for this year’s A to Z Challenge. This year, my theme is motivational quotes. Each 
Monday to Saturday throughout April I will be posting a motivational quote each day starting with the letters A through to Z.
It’s traditional through the challenge to keep posts short and sweet, so that’s what I’ll be doing. Just a quick explanation of why I chose each quote and what it means to me.
Day 16 – P
“Push yourself – you didn’t wake up today to be mediocre”
I absolutely love this quote. It really speaks to me.
What’s the point in even bothering to get out of bed if you aren’t going to try? If you just push yourself, you can achieve so much, and if you practice doing that every day, it will soon become the norm.
Push yourself every day and reach for the sky, because as the quote says, you didn’t wake up today to be mediocre. Why would anyone choose mediocrity over greatness? If you don’t push yourself, you will never leave your comfort zone, and as people say, nothing great was ever achieved in your comfort zone.
What are you going to do today to make sure you aren’t mediocre? Do you push yourself every day? Let me know in the comments 🙂
Don’t forget to check back every Monday to Saturday to see the next motivational quote!

I truly follow that – No one was born to be simple or mediocre. We are all here to make an impact in the world.
I wonder sometimes about our fear of mediocrity. Maybe being mediocre is okay if we’re happy. I think we definitely need to be the best version of ourselves every day – but not all of us are going to be shining stars.

From a personal point of view, I don’t really believe you can be happy if you’re plodding along in mediocrity. By that, I don’t mean we all have to be millionaires or celebrities. I mean that we should strive to be the best we can be everyday – which I think is what you’re saying too!
yes….every day I push myself….if I do not…no one else will……thank you for sharing…
Mediocre is not in my vocabulary!
Your quotes are lovely!
Thank you 🙂
I feel that some days I’m actually lucky if I’m mediocre. When you’re an exhausted part-time working Hockey Mom like me, just getting through some days is pretty good.
Every phase in life isn’t about reaching for the sky.
interestingly I was still writing about leaving my comfort zone 😉
Yes, getting through the day is definitely an achievement with all of that going on!
