Be Fearful of Mediocrity
“Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.” — Albert Einstein
In today’s competitive environment…
Mediocrity is a self-imposed death sentence.
Why?
Because…
Work, money and opportunity gravitate to scarce resources…quality labor, good attitude and unique skill sets.
Here’s what’s not scarce…unskilled labor, poor attitudes and weak skill sets.
In fact, there’s a glut…a massive surplus of mediocrity in the global marketplace which explains why it’s not held in high regard.
Scarcity is what gives greatness such incredible value…and you fundamentally destroy your chances of a better future by practicing mediocrity.
It’s as simple and straightforward as that.
Either you’re among the select few who are thriving, or you’re like most people who are distracted, overwhelmed, underemployed and struggling.
The raw, honest, finger-in-the-eye truth is this…
It’s simply not enough to just show up, go through the motions and do your work.
