Duncan Nugget #145: The New "Average"

Sunday
topics : , , , | 3 comments »
How was the food? It was good.

How was the movie? It was good.

Can she sing? She's good.

Nowadays, good is not good enough.

Have you noticed that when people are truly impressed and they really like something they use words other than "good"? They say things like "really good", "soooo good", great, incredible, hot, amazing, exceptional, or "wow". Sometimes they make up words and phrases.

How was the food? It was Fi! (That's how young people in Atlanta say "fire".)

How was the movie? Oh my God! It was like totally awesome. 

Can she sing? She ain't no joke. She got mad skillz.

If you want to rise to the top in today's competitive market, you need to be more than good. A lot of people are good.

Good is the new “average”.

Million-Dollar Question:
What are you doing to be more 
memorable than "good"?
