Mediocre work can be very costly. It falls short on impact, but is not small enough to throw away and start over. Not a 2 outcome with effort level 1, with the potential for improvement. Not a 10 with effort level 7. But a 4 with 5.25 effort! Like a meh dinner that cost good money.
Mediocre work drains motivation and morale. We can cloak it in success theater, but no one involved is buying it. Not even junior team members. And not your customers. Without the counterbalance of amazing work (and the big misses we learn from), you risk it becoming all your team knows.
I have a very thoughtful coworker, Beata Petkowa, who can help. I've been wanting to surprise her for a while now to thank her for doing a kick-ass job. Email her at beata....@amplitude.com. She can route you to the right person who can tell you more about the product. The bonus is that if you become a customer, or are seriously interested, I can probably work with you!
Often we pass through mediocrity on our way to something better. It motivates us. It taunts us and keeps us up at night. \u201CI can keep making this better and get it to a good place!\u201D It\u2019s a transient state. Unless we stop. In which case it is mediocre work. Teams give \u201Clearning\u201D lip-service. The proof is in the pudding\u2026where did that learning go?
\u201CDoubling down\u201D on mediocre work with more mediocre work, makes it exponentially mediocre. Mediocre^3. Insult to injury. Salt into wounds. This happens to everyone, of course. With care and luck, over time we learn how to cut our losses and not fall victim to irrational escalation of commitment and the sunk cost fallacy. Without care and luck...
Rationalized mediocre work is even worse than accidentally mediocre work. The calculus is alluring on the surface. A 5.25 is EXACTLY 1.75 less than 7 in terms of effort! Wow, that\u2019s the right option! We can eek out 6.72 days of work on something else! But it rarely pays off in retrospect unless we\u2019re very good at glossing things over. You\u2019ll hear from people who made millions/billions of dollars off a mediocre work. They\u2019ll explain how it made everything possible. Don\u2019t trust them. Seek counterfactuals.
Product work is hard! We fall short all the time (if we\u2019re honest with ourselves). Falling short and learning from it\u2014in ways that help us make better decisions in the future \u2014is different from mediocre work. The thing with mediocrity is that there\u2019s a component of knowing better. To the experienced folks, this is on you to help your more junior team members, while checking your own overconfidence. You\u2019d be surprised, though. Junior team members also have a mediocrity radar.
There\u2019s nothing worse than a big sprawling project treated with attention level 5. Not focused enough to figure out the moving parts, and collaborate. But still a big deal. You can\u2019t let it languish there. You have to make room to dot your Is and cross your Ts. All hands on deck. Run the project, or don\u2019t do it. Few orgs can handle more than a couple of these without dragging everyone down, so you\u2019ll have to limit BPIP (big projects in progress). Or you'll end up with lots of MBPIP, mediocre big projects in progress. Which leads to a big backlog of stuff-to-do. Which increases WIP (work in progress). Which increases MP (mediocrity probability).
If you normalize mediocre work, you risk alienating the people who care. Now they are the weird ones, the dogmatic ones, the heel draggers, and the zealots. If you\u2019re lucky they can find outlets outside of work to scratch that itch, but that never lasts long. They\u2019ll leave. Don\u2019t be part of that. And if you are part of ostracizing others, please reconsider.
Craft matters, and craft enables outcomes and quality. But craftful work can also be mediocre work if it doesn\u2019t solve a real problem. Craft is a seductive distraction when you have no sense if your work is working. Craft AND focus/purpose is an incredible combination. Shoot for that!
So how do you prevent your org from slipping into the various mediocre work traps? Even mentioning the word \u201Cmediocre\u201D is liable to inspire wicked glances. And this is a veritable cognitive bias minefield. The first tip is to start with a definition of awesome. Something people can really relate to. That has a clear link to business success. Second, do your best work and create success stories. Make that definition of awesome nonfiction not fiction. Have something to point to that yells AMAZING. Third, ironically, is to publicize when things don\u2019t work. Things that normalize misses, allow you to bail out of losing bets earlier.
Fourth (and I don\u2019t get paid any more/less if you do this) but if you\u2019re curious about Amplitude, and want to help me surprise a coworker, please read on. Amplitude makes understanding impact and doing better work easier. It isn\u2019t magic. But it helps.

I was raised in a family of entrepreneurs: my mom, dad, aunts, cousins, all have their own businesses. That means, of course, that I spent most of my childhood following them around, spending time with them while they were at their jobs. My family always worked a lot, but I was also raised witnessing their passion for what they did.
After that, I have never really stopped. I worked in different places, took different roles, got involved in different initiatives... and then I met AIESEC - the organization I currently work for. That was seven years ago. I was frustrated with the lack of practical learning at my University, so I decided to travel to China for 2 months in order to volunteer at different schools.
I decided that was the time to make a change. With the support of my boyfriend, I started switching habits and learning how to slow down when needed. Seven years later, I can definitely say I am a much more balanced person than before - even though my week still includes at least a 50h workload. Yes, I am still a "workaholic". I admit that I have a lot to improve, but I am proud of where I currently stand.
In these last years, I saw hundreds of young people like me going through the same struggle. For this reason, I decided to share some of my learnings in this journey of becoming a more balanced and healthy person.
My advice here is: set achievable short-term goals, one at a time. Define what matters the most, and add other challenges to it slowly. Your goals need to be challenging, but if they are too challenging, they will demotivate you. Don't fall into that trap.
If you hate being stuck at a gym, why torture yourself? If you love eating meat, why cut it? There are plenty of options for exercises, diet plans or techniques that can fit your personality. You can always experiment with them (By the way, Find here or in here some nice ideas for that). Don't forget that being extremely restrictive is only going to make things worse for you.
One of the most important pillars of a balanced life is called support system. When you surround yourself with at least one person who understands you and shares your commitment, things get easy. That can be a gym buddy or that friend at work that knows you and calls you out when you are over the edge. You most probably already have one, so make good use of it.
There will be those moments when you will feel like everything is lost and life sucks. This most probably will happen in a week where you have a massive deadline ahead, and your routine is all over the place. At this point in time, blaming yourself is the worst you can do. Accept that this is the way things are at the moment, give yourself a break and make sure you take some time afterward to learn from this situation. No one is perfect, nor should we be so.
In the end of the day, I do believe that work/life balance or wellbeing can become a jargon or even a trap. If there is one thing that I learned in these last years, is that there is no miraculous recipe for becoming more balanced. Wellbeing and health are not the same for everyone, they are concepts that often mislead people into feeling inadequate and falling into the "perfect life" illusion set by media.
What about myself? Well, I am and will remain a "workaholic" by nature. I deeply believe that work and life are not two separate things. I am eager to be fulfilled at my job and to feel that I am contributing to a better world. Nevertheless, that doesn't mean I will neglect my health or relationships because of that. And neither should you.
Hit-Girl and it isn't close. The Kick Ass movies might lack trap feats, but common sense and caution go a long way to avoid shit like that. Collector would have to get very lucky. If she gets in the room with him then he's dead no matter how much he prepared.
On 1 end I want to go with Hit Girl (She is far more capable and competent than the protagonist in the collector) however I think her being so short is going to make it hard to get around so many traps how an adult can (Like if your foot gets stuck in that adhesive and you have to stretch your leg to the bed.)
