How rich would the extreme success leave me?
Hitler was at one point the richest man in the world bar none, same for Napoleon
I had extreme success and extreme failure so I know how it feels. I guess I would take this over mediocrity cos the extreme success wasn't negated completely by the failure and I can still look back on the success and feel good.
I rather just have regular success followed by more regular success.
A mediocre life with a loving family is probably 1000x more fulfilling than a life of extreme riches and then extreme failure. Especially if the success keeps you from being an active part of a family, and failure leads to losing what you did build for yourself.
I guess it depends on the situation, but from everything I’ve seen, mediocrity is underrated. It’s all about finding peace with yourself.
As long as it's not like murder or pedo s*** or something terrible, i'd be chill with extreme success and failure. Like if im a billionaire and then im homeless and disabled that sounds fun, i aint want people to think im a monster thou.

Only thing that intrigues me about mediocrity is family and love but then I dont know if your life is mediocre if you have those things functioning well

I mean he’s defining success and failure as hitler so I’m sure a normal loving family would be mediocre according to his terms.
Hmm I’d probably go with extreme success and extreme failure, sounds like an interesting life worth living.
this tbh
success w failure , it’s all about experiences and with mediocrity are you really experiencing anything
Honestly my father was a very successful businessman but his personal life was kinda f***ed. He only noticed this when he retired. No real friends outside of work and he really didnt know his family. While I am thankful for him working his ass off for us I also wonder if it was really worth it.
Just growing up I kinda went into the direction of much rather having a great personal life than a career.
Grew up in very similar circumstances to what you are describing
Almost kind of resented my pops for putting work over so many other things in life that matter
