Average people do average things. Uncommon people to uncommon things. Successful people do the things unsuccessful people are unwilling to do.
I was walking around Disney with the family, and I noticed how drab and average everyone was. I thought to myself, ‘So this is what average looks like. This is how they spend their time.’ Then the horrific reality hit me… I could be one of them. Mindlessly indulging in an average past time. I looked at myself through their eyes. It scared me. ‘But I’m not one of them,’ I pleaded with myself, ‘my experiences have taught me much differently then them. I have a much different style of thinking. My past is anything but average.’ But there I was, side by side with the average American, indulging in an average American past time
So I might not be average if I go to a bar with friends, or go to disney, or travel to vegas for the weekend for celebrations, or go to college, etc. But if my choices continue to bring me to the popular ideas or destinations of the masses, I need to seriously reevaluate my yearning to be an uncommon man who makes uncommon decisions.
The average man is a conformist, accepting miseries and disasters with the stoicism of a cow standing in the rain. ~Colin Wilson

I think about the whole being average and me being different topic a lot. I look around and have thoughts just like yours, like everybody is just so boring and… average. Then when I try and think about myself and what it is that makes me different and any more exciting than them, I usually just end up feeling like I don’t really have much else to offer and I probably am just like everybody else, but we all like to think we’re different. I don’t know.
You are average.
You don’t know those people. You don’t know what they think, how they think, or why they think it. And if you base your desires off of other people, aren’t you “just as bad” as them? In my ever-humble (and probably terribly average) opinion, this entry seems a bit arrogent and ignorant.
How do you define average?
