Aim for Excellence

-
“Everyone has the power for greatness, not for fame but for greatness”
-Martin Luther King Jr.

Greatness is the birthright of every individual. It is not only for a few chosen but also for the ones who are ready to aim for excellence. Indeed, excellence is the one that brings greatness to a man. Be excellent at your work, be excellent at your home and be excellent at being a human being because every act done in excellence leads to greatness.

Excellence is never perfection. Often people confuse themselves between excellence and perfection. Perfection is excellent but excellence always may not be perfect. Usually, people do a lot of hard work and attain excellence. In their desire to attain perfection, they stop giving value to excellence and go for perfection. In this process, they lose their opportunities. Hence, aim for excellence and go for it. Don’t wait to be perfect. Just do it.

Aiming for excellence in every moment of your life will empower and inspire you always. Never be satisfied with mediocrity but be excellent. There was never a great man who lived in mediocrity. People sometimes misunderstand mediocrity with humility. In reality, hiding your potentials is a crime and accepting mediocrity makes you a burden to others.


Remember: Great people don’t do great things. They do regular things with 
excellence.

Viktor Frankl, in his book ‘Man’s search for Meaning’, says, “We have the ability to choose how we respond to and process any event that happens to us.’ Viktor Frankl was an Austrian psychotherapist who survived confinement in the Nazi concentration camps. When he was in the camps, there were many people around him who went through the same torment and torture that he had gone through. Many lost hope. Many lost positivity. This caused them loose their health and finally their lives. Few among them including Viktor retained their positivity and survived the torment. But how does one retain their positivity even in the midst of the worst? Viktor, in his book, notes down three traits of the survivors that helped them retain their even when they came face-to-face with death. 1.Have an Aim: Your life should have an aim. The aim should be such that you should work, study and even sleep accordingly that you attain your aim. The aim can be anything from being the best athlete to a ...

The Virtue called Hard Work

We, as human beings, have the inner call and potential to be someone great. But it is not easy. Why? It is simply because this inner call to be someone great is not only in you or me but in the entire 7.6 billion people of this planet. But how do some people who like you and me made up of the same flesh and bones attain success and greatness? One day, a lady met Picasso in the market. She pulled out a paper and said, “Mr. Picasso, I’m your great fan. Could you please draw me a picture?” Picasso happily agreed, drew a picture in 30 seconds and told her, “It’s worth a million dollars.” The confused lady replied, “But it took you only 30 seconds.” Picasso laughed, “My dear lady, it took me 30 years to draw this masterpiece in 30 seconds.” What really makes a great man like Picasso different from others is the amount of work that they put to attain success. If you want to succeed, the first thing you need to realize is that there are thousands of people out there who have the s...

Making your mark on the world is hard. If it were easy, everybody would do it. But it’s not. It takes patience, it takes commitment, and it comes with plenty of failures along the way. The real test is not whether you avoid this failure because you won’t. It’s whether you let it harden or shame you into inaction, or whether you learn from it; whether you choose to persevere. - Barack Obama We as human beings are designed by God to be successful. Then why most of us don’t achieve what we are designed for. People often tell it’s all about their fate. That’s bullshit. It’s only about how to tackle life. It’s only about how you get up each time you fall. It’s only about perseverance. The Cambridge English dictionary defines perseverance as continuous effort and determination. Yes, it is truly the essence of how you recover each time you fall and still go on in spite of the efforts and hard work you put in. but are there steps even to make our mind strong enough to persevere even ...
