Lesson 29: Being Average is Mediocre.
When you buy a car you only look for the best.
When organizations hire their new staff, they only look out for the best and brightest.
In politics,only those with the best strategy will eventually win.
When looking for partners we only check the one who will be the best from our perspective.
Everyone will not pass an opportunity to work for the Fortune 500 companies, why? Because they are the best companies.
When you think of google, IBM, Apple, Microsoft, Facebook what comes to your mind,? "They are the best we have"
Why do we adore and take every opportunity to buy Apple products? Because they are the best.
No one will choose the interviewee who performed averagely.
No one will go to the market to look for an average product.
No one will remember an average product.
There is a limited choice where the "Average" will come out on top
There is only one choice, we always look for the best.
When we know that the best will always come out on top, we have to find ways in which we can bridge the gap and be the best version of ourselves in whatever we do.
This reminds me a valuable lesson my mentor once shared with me, "If you can invest 1hr each day in whatever you want to be good at, in less than 3years maximum you will be among the top 25 in the world experts in that particular area"
Wise words indeed, choose to be the best always, being average is mediocre.
