Our current virtualized everyday life is becoming saturated with toxic levels of inauthenticity that we are forced to ingest. We live in a noisy world and if we accept it, we become part of the noise… we become mediocre out of fear of being different. This affects our emotional, psychological, social, and spiritual state. Discover...
We see mediocrity in entropic, ossified systems that are no longer working, old patterns that are no longer serving us, lack of creativity and innovation in individuals and organizations, lack of authentic self-expression... ultimately lack of authentic power and ethical leadership. Science shows that genetically, our brain has not changed much in 50,000 years, which means our 'caveman brain’ is struggling to deal with the high and constantly changing demands and challenges of the 21st Century workplace and life.
None of us like to be mediocre, yet we all are in some ways. Can we overcome it? Certainly. By overcoming our baser tendencies. By unlearning status quo and getting beyond our current comfort zone. By having the courage to be authentic, even if that means being different. By navigating the jungle of our unresolved issues, pain and old programming. Lastly, by finding our own path and inventing our own identity in the world. Good new, our brain is very adaptable and able to learn new skills and as a result of neuroplasticity it forms NEW neuropathways throughout our lives.
Hello Change Seekers! My name is Maria Marc
Authentic self-awareness is a personal wake-up call, often disguised in a ‘perfect storm’ that help us break out of mediocrity, course-correct, and build sound respect for who we are and where we are in our lives.
...
The current pandemic gave us the opportunity to retreat, contemplate, and regain a clear understanding of ourselves and our values. It takes grit to accept who we are, find the courage to face our own ‘perfect storm’, and start believing in the power of being uniquely ourselves in the world.

When the winds of change rage, some build shelters while others build windmills. What are you building?
The current capitalist model got us out of the middle age into a better place, with less poverty, diseases, and war. We’ve come a long way. But we are at an inflection point now… we might need an upgrade, or an entirely new model to be able to move into the next stage of our evolution.
The downside of today’s capitalism is the destruction of our environment, the many social problems we are currently facing…. besides, it lacks SOUL. We can no longer do business for the sake of business… growth without check, profit without thought! This model has become unsustainable.
Switching to more ethical business and leadership practices would help us course correct… restore the environment, bring more loyalty and purpose into what we are doing. We would all feel more fulfilled and maybe ready to leave a legacy to our grandchildren, a planet for them to live on.
