By definition, you cannot do what everyone else is doing and be extraordinary.  You must be willing to do the things that others aren't that will make you stand out from the crowd.  When others are playing, you are studying.  When others are resting you are gearing up for a second training session.  And when others are sleeping, you are creating.  Excellence is born in the foundation of the "extra" that you do and that you do every day.  Don't be shy about it, don't be apologetic about it, and don't be scared of it for it is in this effort that your greatest experience will be realized.

It’s never crowded along the extra mile.  Wayne Dyer

An extraordinary life is all about daily, continuous improvements in the areas that matter most.  Robin Sharma

People do not decide to become extraordinary.  They decide to accomplish extraordinary things.  Edmund Hillary
