3 Simple but Guaranteed Steps to Excellence
“Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom in the grave, whither thou goest.” — Ecc 8:9
“The choice to be excellent begins with aligning your thoughts and words with the intention to require more from yourself.” — Oprah Winfrey
Here is how I unpack this quote:
1. You should always be able to speak your mind. Your thoughts must align with what you say.
2. Always do what you say you will do. Your word is your bond. That is integrity.
3. Demand more, demand the best of yourself at all times.
In orders, we cannot excel without integrity and the willingness to do more.
“Excellence then is not an act, but a habit.” — Aristotle
So make the right choice.
Choose integrity, demand more of yourself always and you will be on your way to excellence.
