what if you allowed yourself to be mediocre?

About this episode

Florence Given encourages listeners to embrace mediocrity as a stepping stone to greatness and to take action despite perfectionism.

Today I’m giving you permission to show up as a fucking amateur, sloppily throw yourself into action and be mediocre. It’s sort of the opposite of a motivational speech, except that this is actually going to get you to take that FIRST step. Because mediocrity is the foundation upon which greatness gets built. This is an episode for anyone that has struggled with perfectionism and hoards their ideas instead of taking tangible action towards the life they want.  LET’S MOVE. LET’S GET UNSTUCK! …..
