Congratulations, You're Mediocre!: Embrace the ordinary and rediscover the joy of being unremarkable

What if success is overrated?
What if burnout isn't a badge of honor, but a red flag?
What if being average isn't a failure-but freedom?

Welcome to the book that throws glitter on the midlife crisis, pops the hustle bubble, and proudly raises a toast (of boxed wine) to the gloriously ordinary life. In this brutally honest and laugh-out-loud funny collection of essays, Bilal Salman dismantles toxic self-help myths, perfection culture, and the cult of constant improvement-and replaces them with something radical: peace.

You'll discover how to:

• Rebrand laziness as "strategic energy conservation"

• Escape the productivity trap without quitting your job (or your sanity)

• Fake confidence like a pro (because everyone else is)

• Heal at your own pace-without becoming a spiritual side hustle

• Stop trying to "find yourself" like you're a lost IKEA screw

Whether you're tired of self-help that feels like homework or just craving a voice that finally says "you're enough," Congratulations, You're Mediocre! is your permission slip to exhale-and laugh while doing it.

This isn't a guide to greatness. It's a love letter to letting go.
