Ordinary is Fine. Nope.

There’s a dangerous little lie that too many of us quietly believe:
Ordinary is fine. Ordinary is safe. Ordinary gets the job done.

But ordinary is a trap. It lulls us into complacency, disguising itself as competence while slowly eroding our capacity for impact.

I learned this the hard way. My first real job out of college had all the trappings of “success” — cubicle, dry cleaning perks, catered lunches, a career path. But it was all… beige. Comfortable. Predictable. Painfully safe.

And that safety? It felt like betrayal.
Not just of my potential — but of the world’s need for something more.

Eventually, I stopped waiting for permission. I started pitching wild ideas in meetings. I twisted templates until they said something real. I dragged in creative influences from everywhere — telenovelas to MTV partnerships — because the idea of settling? It made my skin crawl.

What I’ve learned: 👉 Complacency is treason.
Not just in business. In leadership. In life.

I’ve been working on an idea I want to inspire you with: it’s time to get Sparked* — which means showing up with energy, purpose, and just enough rebellion to shake the dust off the room. It means refusing the slow death of going through the motions.

You don’t have to blow everything up. But you do have to stop coloring inside the lines just because someone handed you that crayon.

The world doesn’t need more safe leaders.
It needs more Sparked ones.
