Imagine a world without quality. That world is coming. Quality is being assassinated by mediocrity. We are told that a rising tide lifts all boats. A rising tide of mediocrity makes everything mediocre and drowns everything of quality. You can’t find any quality because it is surrounded by so much mediocrity. Nietzsche said, “The higher we soar the smaller we seem to those who cannot fly.” Mediocre people cannot recognize quality. For them, it’s tiny, very far away, and irrelevant to their lives. Vicki Corona wrote, “Remember that life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away!” In the land of mediocrity, life is measured more and more by the former and features none of the latter. We live in a muzak world, a world of sanitized, sterilized elevator music, designed to be as innocuous as possible, forming a uniform background, a background of absolute, mind-wiping mediocrity. The whole world is becoming like that. What will you do about it?
