I love that people are into things that are wrecked and abandoned and crumbling. "This thing all things devours", I have a bunch of images of great achievements that are being consumed or rendered to their component molecules by time and natural processes. Everything will change, is changing, must change.

Shipwreck in Greece, an Ottoman train destroyed WWI, a British plane in the Sahara from WWII. Reverse image search will lead to interesting reads...

in a rocky and sandy land that is flat and empty to the horizon we see the weathered and half-buried remains of a world war 2 era fighter-type airplane. the damaged, bent propellers and nose of the plane have been torn off and are several yards away from the body, which is flat on its belly with no landing gear
in a desert landscape, with low hills and a crumbling stone building in the background, we see a old time steam locomotive on its side, rusting and sandblasted and half buried in sand
an ocean going vessel is grounded in shallow bright green water in a cove with rocky hills rising away to either side. The ship is tilted to starboard, thoroughly rusted

"The time to escape mediocrity comes when you recognize the need to!" - Futurist Jim Carroll

I'm considering a sequel!

Should I?

With the impending release of the book about mediocrity, I've realized the perfect companion piece to it is an anti-mediocrity book!

Let's call it "Escaping Mediocrity: How to Accelerate Your Future and Achieve Breakthrough Results." That stands in nice contrast to the one due out in print any time now, "Embracing Mediocrity: How To Do Nothing Normal And Accomplish as Little as Possible."

It's the perfect combination!

After all, what's better than getting a new book? Getting two!

Even the cover image works - one fellow is burnt out, tired, and confused with his mediocre life. The other is vibrant, enthused, and eager with his mastery of creativity, innovation, and tomorrow!

I've even crafted together the back cover copy:

---

Finally, a book that provides the perfect antidote to a mediocre life!
In a world hungry for transformation, "Escaping Mediocrity" illuminates the path from ordinary to extraordinary. This dynamic guide maps the territory between settling and soaring, revealing the precise moments where breakthrough decisions launch everyday people into a remarkable achievement.

Through 125 research-backed strategies and real-world success stories, readers will discover how small, intentional choices compound into monumental results. It's a practical playbook for anyone ready to trade comfortable plateaus for the exhilarating climb toward their full potential.

Whether you're reinventing your career, scaling an organization, or pursuing audacious personal goals, this comprehensive guide delivers a masterclass in identifying and seizing the pivotal moments that separate the exceptional from the average.

You'll uncover the science of breakthrough performance and the actionable steps that turn distant dreams into daily progress.

After all, why hug the ground when the stars are within reach? This isn't just a roadmap to excellence – it's your launch pad to a life of extraordinary impact!

----

What do you think?

Should I go for it?

"It's easy to embrace mediocrity, but harder still to resist its comfortable embrace!" - Futurist Jim Carroll

For someone who loves to rush into a project, the process of seeing a project through to completion can be sometimes maddening. With that in mind, my wife and business partner is a very patient woman.

More on that below, but first, your moment of mediocrity!

What do I mean when I say "It's easy to embrace mediocrity, but harder still to resist its comfortable embrace!" I'm suggesting that it is very easy for you to fall into a mediocrity trap - because it can just be so easy there! With that in mind, here's a risk assessment you can do - are you at risk of any of these issues, all of which lead to mediocre performance?

- Death by routine thinking: You know I hammer home the idea that the future belongs to those who innovate at speed. Yet organizations and people cling to legacy mindsets, muttering "We've always done it this way" while their competitors master emerging technologies and business models at light speed.

- Innovation paralysis: When confronted with disruptive change, many retreat into analysis paralysis rather than taking bold action. This "aggressive indecision" is corporate and career suicide in an era where market opportunities emerge and vanish in digital microseconds.

- Regular 'idea assassination:' Organizations are killing their future by strangling innovative thinking. In a world of rapid disruption, this is like choosing to compete with a bow and arrow in a laser gunfight.

- The 'comfort zone catastrophe': Seeking safety in the familiar is a fast track to irrelevance. Tomorrow's winners are those willing to pivot fast, fail fast, and accelerate through change.

- 'Purposeful deficit disorder': Running on autopilot equals death in the innovation economy. Without a clear future focus, you're simply managing your extinction.

- 'Decision velocity crisis': Over-analysis is the enemy of agility. While you're studying spreadsheets, your more nimble competitors are already executing and learning from real-world results.

The brutal truth: Mediocrity is a choice to become obsolete. In an era of relentless disruption, the only viable path for you is to avoid mediocrity or face extinction. Your future depends on which path you choose.

"People aren't impressed by what you say you can do - they're impressed by what you actually do!" - Futurist Jim Carroll

Prove it.

That's what matters.

People remember people who get things done. People who get things done are the ones who succeed with the future and trends.

Here's what I know about initiative and moving forward -talk is cheap. Really cheap. I've watched countless organizations and individuals tell me about all the amazing things they're going to do - and then watched most of them do, literally, absolutely nothing after the fact. They've booked me for a keynote on innovation, but they don't innovate. They ask for hard-hitting insight on disruptive trends and then watch as others disrupt their business. They seek insight on how to accelerate their creativity but fall right back into their old mindsets.

What happens in these situations? A lack of commitment, but more importantly, a lack of initiative.

That's why I have often said that motivational insight is, for some, a bit like Chinese food. It's great at the moment, but you're hungry 20 minutes later.

Here's what it all comes down to: success isn't about having the best ideas - it's about having the courage and capability to act on them. Organizations that align themselves with the speed of change, that foster a culture of action over discussion, and that understand the importance of immediate implementation are the ones that consistently succeed in shaping their future rather than being shaped by it.

Remember: in today's rapidly evolving world, the gap between opportunity and obsolescence isn't determined by what you know - it's determined by what you do with what you know.

Think about that.

Stop talking about what you're going to do.

Start doing it.

Because that's what people remember.

Action matters.
