The Institute of Positive Mediocrity

Introduction

Here at the Institute of Positive Mediocrity we have devised a number of interactive courses for ambitious and self-motivated mediocrities who do not intend to allow their mediocrity to be a professional barrier to what we at the Institute call Positive Mediocrity.

Within our course modules, candidates will be presented with a number of Positive Personal Strategies towards understanding and enhancing the Mediocrity Profile which most suits their ambitions and temperament. 

We present both positive and negative Mediocrity Aspects, any two or three of which may be combined to form an Individual Mediocrity Strategy.

For example, we have –

Loud Mediocrity
Virtuous Mediocrity
Gregarious Mediocrity
Superior Mediocrity
Down to Earth Mediocrity
Fanatical Mediocrity
Vanilla Mediocrity

There are of course many other Mediocrity Aspects on offer here at the Institute, such as Scientific Mediocrity, Technical Mediocrity or Artistic Mediocrity with all their numerous subdivisions. 

However, we warn all our Mediocrities that Vanilla Mediocrity is best avoided except by advanced practitioners and should never be used without careful combination with other Mediocrity Aspects.

For example, Lisa Nandy MP has chosen to use Vanilla Mediocrity as a standalone Aspect with some success, but the weakness of this approach is still uncomfortably apparent.

Or take Jeremy Corbyn MP as another example. Mr Corbyn has chosen to combine Fanatical and Vanilla Mediocrity for decades, but again without the success other strategies might have offered

Here at the Institute we have many courses on offer from beginner to advanced. To take just one more example in this brief introduction, we tackle the thorny problem of Pompous Mediocrity, a strategy which is usually best avoided except by specialist practitioners such as senior BBC presenters.
