The World Caters to Average People and Mediocre Lifestyles
Becoming extraordinary means leaving the majority
“If you want to live an exceptional and extraordinary life, you have to give up many of the things that are part of a normal one.” -Srinivas Rao
Most people have a hard time saying “no.”
Most people don’t have fulfilling, intimate relationships with their loved ones.
Most people are unhealthy and overweight.
Most people are compulsive buyers and foolish spenders, perpetually in debt.
Most people have no long-term plans or goals.
Most people can’t commit to anything.
Most people don’t sleep well.
Most people consume too much alcohol, caffeine, and sugar.
In short:
Most people live ordinary, average lives.
And to quote Seth Godin:
“Is there a difference between ‘average’ and ‘mediocre?’ Not so much.”
The Truth is Bad For Business
The world is only too happy when people remain average and ordinary.
