We are all drowning in mediocrity. Most people in this world are mediocre in all aspects of life. Sure we read books, watch Videos, listening to podcasts, etc that promise to make us better at something or other however most virtual advisors preach the same mantra - hard work. But... No amount of hard work can overcome the fact that you and I are mediocre.
I know, I know, I know you do not think of yourself as mediocre. You are better than that, right? Well I am afraid to tell you that you are lying to yourself and others. And the reason you will never be better is you surround yourself with people who are mediocre. The talent pool you swim in, or compete with, is mediocre.
Think about the clear examples of mediocrity we see in leaders around the world, among scientists, among teachers, amongst.... Recently I came to the stark realisation that around 99% of people are mediocre. And that simple insight enabled me to make sense of 2021 situations that seem to be senseless. For example... The covid-19 pandemic has proven to be a total disaster for human civility, dignity, progress, and humility because most of the people who are in charge of us are mediocre.
For most of my life I have thought that the great majority of my fellow humans are dumb. But. The situation is far worse than that because most people whether they are dumb, or smart, are nonetheless mediocre. And there seems to be no cure, no vaccine, no training regime, no brain transplant, and no intervention that can hope to cure mediocrity.
Perhaps the greatest issue for the world in 2021 is that we are all drowning in the calm seas of mediocrity [see photo].
