FEATURE ARTICLE:
Motivating for Mediocrity |
Do we, as a society, motivate for true
success? Or do we motivate just to get by?
In your job, are you motivated to be above
average or just to keep off the bosses
"naughty list"? One more question: Why do we
motivate ourselves, our employees, even our
children for mediocrity?
The following are four suggestions to fly
higher than mediocrity.
1. Always go farther.
What ever is asked of you or whatever your
responsibility is, do more than you are ever
expected.
2. Share the praise.
Remember, whatever success or victory you
experience, you do NOT experience alone.
There are others that help you get to where
you strive to be. Always share the praise.
That will raise you above mediocrity.
Mediocrity will covet the praise and horde
it like a child snatches the last piece of
candy so no one else will get it.
3. Ask for more.
When you do experience a victory and are
pulling away from mediocrity, do not hang up
your efforts. Ask for more. Or find more to
do. This will set yourself apart from the
mediocre crowd.
4. Treat others nice.
Always remember how you would like to be
treated by others. Take that thought and
treat others the same way. This is also the
Golden Rule. "Do unto others as you would
have them do unto you." Great rule. Live by
it. It's a principle that is anything but
mediocre.
Follow the above four tactics and you'll
find yourself flying high above the mediocre
mindset.
Just remember when you're training for a
job, raising your children or preparing you
mind for any task, mediocre is so average.
Do you want to be just average?
Keep looking and living forward.
