You’re not average — but your results might be. And it’s not because you’re lazy, unmotivated, or unclear. In this episode, we’re breaking down the quiet ways high achievers sabotage their success: from half-committing, to making micro-excuses, to hiding from their own greatness.
You’ll learn why driven people often fear being average — but also resist believing they’re extraordinary. If you’ve been feeling stuck at a plateau or tired of getting “meh” results that don’t reflect your potential, this conversation will light a fire under you.
It’s time to rewire how you show up — and finally start getting the results that match who you really are.

0:08.1 | And you want to make a real impact. You want to excel. And yet, you still feel like you're fighting and getting average results. |
0:16.4 | Or you're so afraid that you're doing all these things and it's just enough to kind of be okay, |
0:21.3 | that you've struggled to actually see yourself for as extraordinary as you are. |
0:27.4 | Not because you're average, not even close, but because there's some sneaky patterns at play. |
0:34.0 | Half commitment, micro excuses, comparing yourself to others, perfectionism in disguise. |
0:39.7 | And here's a truth that not a lot of people are talking about that we're going to talk about |
0:43.1 | today is that high achievers are so afraid of being average, but we're resistant to admitting |
0:51.2 | that we're extraordinary. Because if you owned your greatness, it would be too vulnerable. |
0:56.1 | And then they would put pressure. |
0:57.6 | And you haven't learned how to manage that pressure. |
0:59.7 | So in this episode, we're calling it out. |
1:02.1 | We're going to talk about the exact reasons why you're playing smaller than you think. |
1:07.0 | How I'll start tomorrow or I need to do more is destroying your momentum and why your micro |

1:46.6 | Confidence Podcast. You're listening to Episode 6506, why you're getting average results. I'm Trish Blackwell, |
1:56.1 | your confidence coach. And let's just start, the fact that you care if you're average or not means you're |
