Have you ever found yourself stuck in the middle? I spoke with a client trying to be everything to everybody. His business was not growing. His life was not happy. He couldn't seem to find a way to make progress.   That's when I said… “My friend, you are stuck in the middle. Nothing good happens when you are in the middle.” In business and life, it's okay to have low expectations and surround yourself with like-minded folks.  It's also okay to reach for your dreams, have high expectations, and expect that of others. What happens if you're in the middle? When low and high expectations combine, confusion is the result. Mediocrity overtakes quality. Frustration will be your daily friend. The choice is yours. If I were you, I would make the decision never to get stuck in the middle. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Welcome back to Total Rally Nation; this week, we dive into the courage to take action. As we reach the end of 2021, talk of new year resolutions or ambitions begins to surface, but there's a substantial difference between ambitions and having aspirations. For this episode, we hone in on aspirations and what it looks like when you seek out discomfort and take action to realize your passion.Timestamps:[00:15] The courage to take action[02:22] Taking action before having trust[06:20] The spectrum of comfort and discomfort [10:43] If you don't seek out discomfort it will find you [12:53] Preparedness over-reactivity[16:11] Who do you aspire to be?[18:40] New year ambitions vs aspirations [20:50] Realizing your passion [22:21] Action kills uncertainty and doubt[27:52] Action is more powerful than words[28:42] Knowing when your life is mediocre[30:41] Living a fulfilling life

Mediocrity has largely ruled the roost in the AFC this season, and the Steelers are contributing to that. But, that means chaos rules the roost along with that mediocrity. Let's look at the AFC & AFC North picture.  While Yinz Were Sleepin': Packers-Bears, why Aaron Rodgers NEEDS to stay healthy for the Steelers sake & another ugly Pitt basketball loss  The Heisman voting went about as expected, and showed what the award is about.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's been three weeks, but we're back. We start with talk about college sports, and all their interesting facets, including why the College Football Playoff is only four teams, before deciding we've screwed around too long. We then talk about the NFL in this season of mediocrity and some teams that have shown their true colors and some that still don't have every question answered, and we talk about our own fantasy teams somehow (17:54). We finish with talking about how Michael Jordan would be in this era, the futures of Zion Williamson and Ja Morant, and how the media covers (or doesn't) certain young players (46:13) and then get into a Pacers rebuild and the Warriors run, but that just turns into a conversation about Dwight Howard and legends going on for too long and the Lakers rebuild (1:00:17). Don't ask, just listen, you'll love it.

Marketing Director at CreativeX, Jason Miller sits down with host Jennifer Gutman of Oktopost to explore the much-needed conversation on the dangers of B2B marketers celebrating mediocrity. More often than not, marketers get bogged down with the day-to-day tactical activity of their role, leaving little time for creativity and certainly not enough time for what Jason calls “intelligent risk-taking”, a term he learned from his time at LinkedIn. Jason opens up about some of the intelligent risks he has taken during his time at LinkedIn, Marketo, Microsoft, ActiveCampaign, and Sony (yes, before he was in B2B marketing, he spent 10 years developing and executing marketing campaigns for some of the biggest names in music!!) that have had some of the biggest rewards of his career and the brands he has served. If you find yourself lately feeling boring or robotic, or measuring activity rather than outputs, Jason provides the pizazz you need to lead with creativity and produce transformational content.

On this week's Memes of the Weekend, we break down the 4 steps to knowing if you're watching one of the Worst NFL Games of the Season.

We also discuss Kliff Kingsbury, Florida, and funny moments in a forgettable Jets-Texans game.

Episode 141 - Ubiquity, Frequency and Quality on Social Media I am asked quite often about using social media for business. Many brands try. Many brands fail. Many brands don't even give it a shot. Using social media successfully as a business takes time, talent and tenacity, frankly. It's not easy. You need to be ubiquitous, conspicuous in your presence on as many channels as possible. That's my opinion. You need to share content frequently, not just every once in a while. And that content you share needs to be of the highest quality. Mediocrity won't cut it. Ubiquity. Frequency. Quality. That's how you market your business on social media.

[REBROADCAST FROM December 11, 2020] In her book, Mediocre: The Dangerous Legacy of White Male America, Ijeoma Oluo, author of the best seller So You Want to Talk About Race, looks at how white men in America have preserved their power for generations -- and the consequences that's had for all of us. She argues that overlooking white male mediocrity has helped devalue college education, promoted leadership styles that have hurt business, and prevented progress on major issues like police brutality and gerrymandering.

Can you believe we're 10 weeks into the college football season? Crazy. Speaking of crazy, Andy and Ari cover everything you need to know about this upcoming crazy weekend of college football games, including: Could UNC score the total, itself, versus Wake Forest, or will the Demon Deacons remain perfect? Is Michigan State ensnared in the perfect Big Ten slip-up game? Andy and Ari debate whether it's prudent to keep John Harbaugh and, subsequently, Michigan's status quo, or try to move on from him this offseason. Should they have done so a year or two ago? Saturday's Scott Frost's last chance...right? Jimmy Lake made some indiscreet and wacky comments about Oregon earlier in the week. The guys, with their 'podcasting prowess', dive into Lake's words.

What might be the answer to the workforce crisis in long-term care?  In this edition of “Let Me Say This About That” we explore the possibilities that Robyn Stone recently shared on Elevate Eldercare. Robyn is the senior vice president for research at non-profit provider organization LeadingAge and co-director of the LeadingAge LTSS Center at UMass-Boston. Mary takes a closer look at the LTSS Center and the unique work that is developed by the researchers.  Marla dives into a Mid-Level Manager Competency Development Guide that was created through the center.   Robyn says supervisors are the most critical linchpin for the retention of frontline team members along with a learning  environment that includes coaching and nurturing. And yet, she says few organizations pay attention to this.  We explore that comment and discuss why coaching is foundational in the Green House model.  Robyn also said, “I think our main challenge is mediocrity and not the really bad apples, because you can always get rid of them.”  Marla will get you thinking about that statement and long-term care with a special article she found on mediocrity.      Learn more about the Mid-Level Manager Competency Guide: http://www.ltsscenter.org/resource-library/Mid_Level_Manager_Competency_Development_Guide.pdf Read the Essay on Mediocrity: https://inside-politics.org/2012/05/21/an-essay-on-mediocrity/ Learn more about the LTTS Center: https://www.ltsscenter.org/ Learn more about The Green House Project: www.thegreenhouseproject.org

Most people believe the American economy is being rigged by and for bankers, CEOs, and other superrich elites, because… well, because it is! With their hired armies of lawmakers, lobbyists, lawyers, and the like, they fix the economic rules so even-more of society's money and power flows uphill to them. Take corporate CEOs. While 2020 was somewhere between a downer and devastating for most people, the CEO class made out like bandits, with each of the three top paid corporate honchos pocketing as much as a billion dollars in personal pay! Are they geniuses, or what? What. All three of their corporations ended 2020 with big financial losses and declining value. So how can such mediocrity produce such lavish rewards? Simple – rig the pay machine. Today's corporate system of setting compensation for top executives is a flimflam disguised as a model of management rectitude. On its face, it sounds good – “Pay for performance,” it's called, meaning the CEO does well if the company does well. But who defines “doing well?” The scam at most major corporations is that the standard of corporate performance that the chief must meet to quality for a huge payday is set by each corporation's board of directors. Guess who they are? Commonly, board members are the CEO's handpicked brothers-in-law, golfing buddies, and corporate cronies. So, they set the bar for winning multimillion-dollar executive paychecks so low that a sack of concrete could jump over it. Well, insist these flimflammers, corporate shareholders are the ultimate stopgap against CEO greed. These “owners” can just vote “no” on any executive pay they consider excessive. However, even “shareholder democracy” is rigged – corporate rules decree that votes by shareholders are merely “advisory,” meaning top executives can simply ignore them, grab the money, and run. This system is fixed... and we need to break it!
