Author, Strategist “It’s not your fault that you feel stuck.” There’s an invisible force holding you back, and in Average Sucks, Michael Bernoff shows you what it is and what you can do about it.

Everyone has an “Average,” and it determines how well your life works. Baseball players have a batting average; the Dow Jones is an average; as a child, your intelligence is measured by your grade point average -- everything in life has an average. The problem is, your Average is designed to maintain the status quo, to keep you comfortable and automatic.

Business Owners: Stay Stuck, and Suck. You run your business a certain way, and it’s gotten you this far. So, if it’s working, why change it? You’ve got good clients, you’re happy enough, even your marriage has a good flow to it... It’s better than some people, right? WRONG. Michael calls this state “Comfortably Numb,” and it’s his mission to help you overcome it so you can reach your true business potential. The reason why “okay” is a big problem: if you’re okay, there’s no need to grow.

Convenience ruined our confidence. Michael’s opinion on what caused the current mental health crisis: The Middle Class. Lack of adversity and surplus of convenience and simplicity has made us anxious and lacking in self confidence. He doesn’t minimize or negate challenges -- you may have been through hell, and if so, your Average is higher than someone who didn’t. But for “in the middle” individuals, you need to seek adversity and challenges to push yourself to do things you don’t normally do.

We’ve all heard it takes twenty-one days to create a habit, and that a reward is necessary to help make a habit stick. That research is outdated!
