About This Quote
The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is that little extra. That little extra, the extra effort, the extra step, that’s all that separates ordinary from extraordinary. The extraordinary person takes a little bit more out of his or her day to make a bigger difference in the world. It’s not going to be easy going from being ordinary to being extraordinary – it takes a huge leap – but the rewards are endless.
