Nothing, that's perfectly OK.   For a normal distribution it just means that outcomes near zero are relatively likely, zero being less than one standard deviation from the mean.

The standard normal curve has mean zero and standard deviation one, so that's a really common example of the standard deviation being greater than the mean.
