how 2 get over fear of being mediocre?

Just don't bother being mediocre.

Less facetiously... Suppose you're mediocre at something you have the following options: 1. Get good 2. Keep being mediocre at it 3. Stop doing the thing (2) rarely the right option unless thing is *essential*, so you probably mostly need to give yourself permission to do (3).

NO NO NO KEEP DOING 2 UNTIL 1 AND BURN 3 WITH HELLFIRE YOLO DO IT DO IT AGAIN DO IT HARDER BETTER FASTER STRONGER

Seems like too much work. I'd rather just get good at the thing.

I'm talking about things you want to do. If you don't want to something why are you even trying?

It's actually quite hard to stay mediocre at things you want to do? Requires almost entirely dissociating from the experience in order to achieve that level of failing to learn from it.
