It was just a couple months ago, when I left a job that I was making a lot of money, I was in a manager role, but something was missing. I felt like I wasn’t being challenged and I had hit a ceiling! I felt mediocrity creeping into me more and more everyday…
No one wakes up wanting to be mediocre. In fact, I would argue there is not a person in the world, who wants to be!
Yet, somehow there are so many people who are…including ourselves!
How can we stop this mediocrity and achieve success? By implementing a mindset, a mindset of “doing whatever it takes”. What we must realize is to adapt this mindset we must be comfortable with doing the following things.
1. Challenge ourselves – we cannot achieve any level of success if we are doing the easiest thing possible. We must challenge our every being.
2. Take risks – whether it be a new job, or a promotion, or moving, risk is inevitable. We have to take risk in order to gain success (make sure it is calculated risk).
3. You will hit rock bottom – regardless of who you are or what your job is, in life we all will hit rock bottom. Don’t be afraid to hit it though, be comfortable and instead of being afraid, throw the rocks out and get yourself out
You see many of us want to be successful and not be this MEDIOCRE group, but we are too scared to take the leap.
It isn’t scary though, it’s thrilling! I’ll never forget leaving that job, and I was so happy and so scared, but I knew it would be for the better.
So, embrace this mindset! Do whatever it takes! Be the best!
If not… the mediocre train departs after this post is done.
