Mediocre and proud of it (for now…)

December 15th, 2008

We are not all the best. We don’t all belong on alltop.com. But that doesn’t mean we can’t get there someday. Yes, it would be great to be Steve Jobs or Michael Eisner without doing a thing. Be at the top of your industry, have everyone desire to have a company like yours. But that isn’t the reality for 99.9% of us. So, we work hard. Really hard. To get better at what we do, and to get more people interested in who we are. Someday, I plan to be on Alltop and a published author (Riding with Lucifer will someday get finished…). But I’m not going to get there just hoping. Right now, I am just mediocre:
 and proud of it. It is neither healthy nor beneficial to be unhappy with where you are. The best advice that I have is to be happy with who you are and where you are but to always be working to improve. I was told once, by a great business woman (my mother), that hard work is the only thing that will get you to where you want to be. Luck comes to those who know how to make it themselves.

What is the best advice you’ve been given in your business? Are you Mediocre and proud, working your way to Alltop?
