Quote

Excellence is a process that should occupy all our days.

We need to internalize this idea of excellence. Not many folks spend a lot of time trying to be excellent.

Excellence is the gradual result of always striving to do better.

Excellence is not a skill, it's an attitude.

Excellence is to do a common thing in an uncommon way.

I mentioned the non-competitive spirit explicitly, because these days, excellence is a fashionable concept. But excellence is a competitive notion, and that is not what we are heading for: we are heading for perfection.

The secret of living a life of excellence is merely a matter of thinking thoughts of excellence. Really, it's a matter of programming our minds with the kind of information that will set us free.

Next to excellence is the appreciation of it.

I am careful not to confuse excellence with perfection. Excellence I can reach for; perfection is God's business.

Excellence is the unlimited ability to improve the quality of what you have to offer.
