  • Power of Mediocrity EP10: Not Ready, Not Set, Just Start!
    We get it, you're busy with life, we totally understand. My normal day starts at 530am, if I'm lucky I can actually wake up at that time, make some coffee, maybe practice for 20 minutes, then hit the road to work. Generally, I get home around 6pm, and I usually eat through working for lunch. Then it is time to make dinner, get the kids homework done, clean up a little, get the kids to bed and all of the sudden it is 9:30pm... if I go to bed at that point we are talking at best  8 hours of sleep and I haven't even had a moment to myself to do anything. Frankly, that is a bit disheartening, but I bet a lot of you can relate. The weekends aren't much better, birthday parties, going to see family, going somewhere, anywhere. The kids want to stay up later too, etc....
    At the same time, you have this voice in your head that wants more out of your life. You want to do something, anything. When do you find time for it? How do you prepare? How will you ever get ready?
    You won't ever be ready.
    You won't ever be set.
    But guess what, you have to start anyways. You'll never have enough time, you'll never be able to prepare fully, but you know what you just have to start. That's the thing.
    Stop listening now, and start you thing, this is the best advice we can give. However, we understand it is good to have more motivation.
    After you started, you're going to have to do 2 more things. You're going to have to "Just Ask" and "Just Execute". We will get into more as the episode goes along. Find us on Facebook, share our posts, like comment, we can't wait to hear from you.

  • Power of Mediocrity EP9: What is Perfection anyways? And Why are you striving for it?
    We are back with another episode of Power of Mediocrity. This past week it was brought to our attention that "perfection" may not be reachable, but it's a good goal to have. We couldn't disagree with that sentiment more. Can you even define what is perfect? Why are you striving for something that is not really even definable? We have a better idea... listen and hear it. Let us know what you think. Subscribe, share, download, save etc...

  • Power of Mediocrity Episode 5: How to Stay Motivated when you aren't Motivated
    We're back, sorry for the delay, lots of oddities going on, but we are back. We wanted to take this opportunity to show that even though we kind of suck at this, we are staying motivated to keep it going. Between sickness, being parents, and trying to do a million things we still somehow made time for this, because we think it is important. So strap in for some more fun, and let's get this party started. Or something like that, mediocre party perhaps?
