What does it mean having an average lifestyle? Well, actually this question should be asked often within the space we live in and it seems like there are millions of citizens who try to avoid talking about their lifestyle. Avoiding problems won`t fix anything, in fact, people don`t even know why they are unhappy, why they have to work and why they can`t change their lifestyle.

The old middle-class thinking that invites you to stay small, have a good job, be grateful, don`t take any risks, is a contributor for so many good working people, with potential, to adopt the average lifestyle.

No, it`s not fine, people don`t realize that bad things are happening in their lives, struggling to pay the rent, living scared that the car`s insurance won`t be paid or depriving themselves of quality foods. 50 million Americans are under poverty line. This is where this mindset eventually could take you, folks.

This sounds like it`s easier set than done, but it is so powerful when someone admits that something is wrong and that`s when ideas start to flow, new possibilities are revealed, doors are opened. I used to have a small thinking, I have adopted the "save only to save" idea, the average lifestyle, the "don`t stand out" preach, the "I`m better off than most of the people" concept, and it didn`t work, I felt unhappy, unsatisfied and unfulfilled. If you are sick and tired of being a slave for someone else`s dreams, man up, take some courage and write your own story. Don`t forget to share the article if it meant something to you, think big and be uncomfortable. Thanks for reading!
