Are you too Medicore to judge athletes


As I watched the commentary of social media during the Olympics I keep having this same reoccurring thought:  Do people hold themselves to the same standard of excellence as they do athletes?  With your god giving gifts and talents are you maximizing your potential at work, at school, at home, at church, in your community?  If not why in the world do you have the ability to call someone else “Good” or “OK” or even “Aight” when at best you’re mediocre in your own everyday life.   If you are not getting better each day, each week, each year  in your own life then maybe you need to stop judging people so critically.  Forget about representing TEAM USA, can you even represent yourself.   I am very proud of all the athletes who represented TEAM USA at the 2012 London games.  If they placed or came in dead last, if they are professionals or amateurs  they all decided one day they would not be mediocre.  That should expire us all to stop being to mediocre in life.
