Journey in Excellence
Excellence is Average
A change in attitude can change your life.
By defining the right attitude, we can change our outlook on life and the majority of the outcomes life brings us.
When life has us feeling down, keeping an optimistic disposition can seem unrealistic or unauthentic - so we know the "right" attitude is more than just slapping a smile on your face and looking for the bright side or silver lining. Having the right attitude is about equipping yourself with the confidence and skills needed to navigate the journey through the storm.
Making excellence your average is about ensuring you are showing up and giving your all, in every aspect at any stage of where you are at, so you are mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually ready to tackle - and overcome - the obstacles that come your way.
Anyone can achieve these results with this powerful mindset but it is so much more difficult when you are on your own. Having a community and network of like-minded individuals who support you along the way is what makes the experience whole - giving you another resource to keep you on track for your journey in excellence experience ultimately leading to living where excellence becomes your average. These people know what you're going through, can help you along the way, and because they are also investing in themselves like you are, there's additional accountability and a special bond you share.
As you grow into the next version of yourself, you will have questions, concerns, hesitancies, even some doubt. Mike is here to help with those challenges AND will be there to celebrate your successes and triumphs!

Throughout your time together, Mike addresses the numerous aspects it takes to have the attitude required for making excellence your average. He works with you on a deeper level than what independent reading and learning can offer.

We are either growing or we are dying.
Mike's book, "It Starts with Attitude" is the “how to” and Journey in Excellence is the execution and accountability to make it happen.
When it comes to personal growth, leadership development, or anything in life, it's really easy to “talk the talk”, but “walking the walk” is another story.
Do you remember being excited to be "done" with school?
It marked the end of studying, lectures, note-taking, textbook reading (for those of you who did those things). You were going to graduate, and you were all prepared to know everything you needed to succeed in life, right?
Wrong.
The reality is, we must continue to learn because the world keeps growing, changing and evolving and we want to make sure that we are doing the same. Remember, two options: we are either growing or we are dying and, if you’ve read this far, you want to be growing!
Growing, constantly striving to be a better version of ourselves and working to make excellence our average. That’s what we do when we understand and believe that when we become better at who we are, we become better in all we do.
This all happens when:
We invest in ourselves so we can grow.
We take risks.
We get uncomfortable.
We meet new people.
We embrace life's opportunities and realize issues don’t exist.
We choose positivity when others are negative.
We find humor in our daily lives.
We bring our best self all day, every day!
A true commitment to excellence certainly includes reading books, listening to podcasts, and listening to motivational speakers. These are fantastic activities and practices to participate in for continued reminders and to stay focused... This is your chance to take it one step further and put the lessons you've read, takeaways you've heard, and revelations you've written into action with a consistent program and community for accountability - THAT is how you offer your best self all day, every day.
Journey in Excellence is created so you can associate with people like you, striving to live in excellence and go from the sidelines to the all-star player, and get the support to find your courage so you can excel in all aspects of your life.
We are the average of the 5 people we spend the most time with.
While this was a saying your mom or dad told you so you wouldn't hang out with the "wrong crowd" growing up, there is some scientific evidence to support the idea that you "become" those you hang around with the most.
The phenomenon of neural synchronization addresses the correlation of brain activity over time amongst a group of people that essentially creates a degree of similarity between everyone in the group. Your actions, thought processes, and decisions are supported and backed by other people within the group, therefore validating any behaviors, decisions, or thoughts we have.
Imagine if you surrounded yourself with people who consistently and constantly acted and thought in a world of excellence being their average.
Being able to adapt and evolve is how we will "bring up the average", make impressive impact, and achieve our goals - no matter what they are.
Journey in Excellence provides a relaxed-formal group setting. We are all striving toward the same thing: making excellence our average BUT going about it in our own way.
Someone could be working toward a promotion at work and want to be more confident in the presence they have in group settings.
Another person could have the desire to inspire others and is seeking improved leadership skills.
Another individual might want to learn how to better balance the bad stress, so every circumstance is an opportunity.
Who do you need to be?
Take a moment and think about your number one goal right now.
It can be…
Being a better parent, spouse, or friend.
Landing that big promotion at work.
Leading a team to success.
Becoming a person of influence.
Being a positive role-model.
Starting a business.
Participating in new experiences.
Living your dream life…
Now, ask yourself, "Who do I need to be to have that kind of outcome?"
Journey in Excellence is here to help you become the person you need to be.
Journey in Excellence is for people who want to invest in themselves.
They are continuous learners (or ready to become one!) and hungry for a positive, energetic environment led by someone who has their best interest as a priority.
These people love their community and where they come from, but also know there are other amazing people out there - and they want to meet them grow with them, and win with them!
They are dedicated to enhancing their well-being (physically, emotionally, spiritually, mentally) to create a self that is ready and open to overall excellence.

Meet Mike Oster
Mike Oster is a professional keynote speaker, author, entrepreneur, mentor, and leadership consultant providing quality "edutainment" for 25+ years. He is a leading authority on developing the right attitude to be a successful leader, follower, team-builder, and team member, ultimately ensuring excellence in results.
Mike has an extensive background. Working for a Fortune 500 corporation, owning and operating his own business, and a career in public service as an elected official, community leader, and volunteer with over 36 years of military service in the South Dakota Army National Guard, attaining the rank of Brigadier General. Mike has received the Defense Service Medal, Legion of Merit, Bronze Star Medal, Meritorious Service Medal, Army and Air Force Commendation Medals along with numerous other awards and decorations.
Born and raised on a small farm in eastern South Dakota, Mike learned at a very young age the value of a hard day’s work and what it means to pour your heart and soul into a profession that did not always cooperate. Being the youngest of five children in a highly competitive house provided some additional “growth opportunities.” His parents provided tremendous support, while engraining the importance of committing to something greater than yourself and emphasising the implementation of the golden rule at every opportunity. This became the fundamental "training” for a broad range of skills that made Mike a highly effective communicator and teacher, helping others focus on how to be the best version of themselves in all they do.
Besides being a husband to his wife Jo since 1988 and father to four amazing children, Mike has two passions: serving his country and providing motivational, inspirational, and educational seminars to a variety of groups and organizations around the country. He truly believes that we can all live in a place where excellence becomes the average in all that we do. When we make excellence our average on a good day, we are spectacular, and on a bad day we are still great
