Our world is killing us. We have to be smarter, stronger, faster. We have to work harder, study longer, please more. We strive, we fight, we endure, we suffer. And for what? All to achieve an end-state that either isn’t what we truly want or what we have no capacity of achieving anyway. We feel pressure to be the perfect mom, the perfect husband, the perfect employee, the perfect daughter, the perfect student, and each day that effort kills us. But guess what, at least 80% of us are average and will always be average. And believe it or not, that’s the good news. Now you can stop trying so hard.
This blog is about changing perceptions of success. It’s about procrastinating, saying ‘no’, lowering expectations, doing just enough to make it (and no more!), and being happy about it. Along the way we’ll find tips and tools for achieving the averageness in you, we’ll find support and input from the other ‘averages’ in the world, and you’ll get a whole lot of useless information that I find awesome. Then again we may not, because we may not get around to it that day. But that’s ok, because this is your ‘perfect’ antidote.
