1. I was said when I read this. I asked myself why I could not accept it. It requires a lot to persuade about a good idea. I do not know if should be sold as a mediocre one in the first place.

   1. A great conundrum 😀

2. So THAT’s how the AppleWatch got decided!

   1. You got it !

3. if a great idea inspires no one, why do you call it great? instead i would call “great” idea mediocre, and “mediocre” becomes great by default.

   1. Because popular perception is no measure of whether something is crap or awesome … and there’s a little thing called marketing and advertising that HUGE companies spend BILLIONS on, whilst smaller setups can’t compete … so these are some of the factors that’d skew enthusiasm, so that a great idea can be treated with less enthusiasm that a mediocre one …

4. Beautiful.D

5. Depressing thought, but probably true.

   1. LOL … VHS and Betamax springs to mind, sure there’s others …

      1. My stepdad bought Beta! Sharper picture (for those of us old enough to remember life before HDTV 🙂 ) but as VHS took over there were less and less rentals available for Beta…he finally bit the bullet and switched.

6. It’s the mediocre who shovel the world’s crap everyday who keep us moving, the great can give us the speed.

   1. You’re steering that one off in a new direction …

   2. Indeed we can have more speed by being less complicate and good.

7. Yes! Just look at the Kardashians. Well they may not be mediocre, they are just plain bad.

   1. Seem pretty mediocre to me, beauty they say is only skin deep …

8. Check out my blog. 😊

9. That is actually very true. Carisma, the ability to reach people’s hearts; that right there is the key to success.

   1. Yup, pretty much 😀
