The dictionary defines mediocre as "of only moderate quality; not very good." Synonyms for the word mediocre are words such as average, undistinguished, unexceptional, lackluster, and forgettable. Do these words describe how you want your life to be remembered? I seriously doubt they do. You want your life to be remembered as inspiring and exceptional.

That's the key, you know, confidence. I know for a fact that if you genuinely like your body, so can others.

But I do. I know what I've got is a bit strange and difficult to love but those are the very aspects that I love the most! It's a bit like people.

And what's beauty, anyway? — Dawn French

The man who is bigger than his job keeps cool. He does not lose his head, he refuses to become rattled, to fly off in a temper. The man who would control others must be able to control himself. There is something admirable, something inspiring, something soul-stirring about a man who displays coolness and courage under extremely trying circumstances.
