What’s the issue with 100%?

Too many people are half-assing shit now a days. At work. In friendships. In relationships. In life in general. People are just doing the minimum and "getting by" I’m so over it.

I am tired of being the one who reaches out to people to see how you’re doing or invite you to hang out. I’m tired of being the one working late, checking things over, thinking harder/longer to make our project better. I’m tired of turning the other cheek and justifying people’s behaviour and apologising to myself for what other’s do. I'm tired of not seeing my input matched/shared.

I am very frustrated with people’s general lack of consistent and meaningful effort in … everything.

Don’t say you’re trying if you’re not going to do it. Don’t do it if you’re not going to do it well.

Shuffle your feet on your own time. Don’t waste mine. I don’t have time for “almost.” Your 74% is bringing down my average. I am about results. Action. Movement.

When I do things, I put my all in it. If I don’t feel like it then I won’t do it. If I’m doing it (whether or not I want to) if I’m doing it, I’m doing it to the best of my ability. Simple rule. Either go hard or go home. So while every day, every time, I may not have the same energy or time or whatever, I still do the best I can under those circumstances and put in my 100%. (Sometimes that 100% looks better than others – like if you’re sick or tired… but at least try. At least do your best.)

I’m by no means perfect and I know this is probably my extreme Virgo work-ethic and obsession with perfection... But I just can’t accept the constant excuses, laziness, apathy and mediocrity. I can't.

Good enough just is not good enough for me.

There. I said it.

/end rant.
