When you're working in front of an audience, you have incentive to excel.

I'm a firm believer that in the theory that people only do their best at things they truly enjoy. It is difficult to excel at something you don't enjoy.

Ever since I was a child, I wanted to excel in everything.

I'm not an overly ambitious person; I don't feel like I have to excel.

Enjoyment is not a goal, it is a feeling that accompanies important ongoing activity.

If I can't do something and excel at it and do it well, I have a tendency to give up on it really easy.

In order to excel, you must be completely dedicated to your chosen sport. You must also be prepared to work hard and be willing to accept constructive criticism. Without one-hundred percent dedication, you won't be able to do this.

How beautiful it is to excel, and the goodness of giving from your heart.

You can get a certain amount of pleasure as a mathematical spectator, reading and watching some of the most beautiful arguments that have been created in the history of humanity. But that's too passive.

Always strive to excel, but only on weekends.
