settling for less

i think settling for less is just you being stupid and lazy. why wouldnt you want your self to have the best in life at all times. settling  is accepting less that what you deserve. that is unless you think you deserve what ever u can get. i think you should always reach for more. its jus like when your kids come home and say mom/ dad i got a 65 in such and such class. Most would be happy just because they passed, but what you should be telling them is you should have gotten a 100 or anything better than what they got.
