Excellence

The pursuit of mastery beyond mediocrity

I have never seen ordinary effort lead to extraordinary results.

The limits of the possible can only be defined by going beyond them into the impossible.

In order to attain the impossible, one must attempt the absurd.

We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence is not an act, but a habit.

We don't rise to the level of our expectations, we fall to the level of our training.

Excellence is not a destination; it's a continuous journey that never ends.

The quality of a person's life is in direct proportion to their commitment to excellence.

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

Mastery is not about perfection. It's about process, persistence, and paying the price.

The pursuit of excellence is its own reward. The rest is just commentary.

Excellence is not being the best; it's doing your best with what you have, where you are.

The difference between good and great is attention to detail that most consider insignificant.

Excellence is the silent partner of every great achievement.

If you're going to do something, do it with excellence - or don't do it at all.

The road to excellence is always under construction. There's always another level to reach.

Excellence is not a skill. It's an attitude that becomes a way of life.

The pursuit of excellence is contagious. It raises the standards of everyone around you.

Excellence is the result of caring more than others think is wise, risking more than others think is safe, and working more than others think is necessary.

Mediocrity knows nothing higher than itself, but excellence instantly recognizes genius.

The price of excellence is discipline. The cost of mediocrity is disappointment.

Excellence is not a single act, but a habit. You are what you repeatedly do.

The secret of joy in work is contained in one word - excellence. To know how to do something well is to enjoy it.

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

Good is the enemy of great. The moment you settle for good enough is the moment you abandon excellence.

Excellence is the gradual result of always striving to do better than your previous best.

The pursuit of excellence requires that you outwork your potential, not just meet it.

Excellence is not a gift, but a skill that requires practice. And practice requires failure.

The highest form of excellence is to live in such a way that you become a standard for others.

Excellence is the product of consistent daily effort compounded over time.

True excellence is not about being better than anyone else, but about being better than you used to be.
