Quite simply life will evolve. And that’s a good thing, isn’t it? Who wants to play Groundhog Day over and over and over? The difference that will make
difference is amount of interest (excellence) you can add to who you are today. You need to ensure that your search of excellence far exceeds impact of these external events. Ensuring that your ability to build on who you are today and seek out constant and never ending improvements will guarantee that small fortune you are today becomes a priceless sum in future.
What are things that seem to come really easily for you? These would be things that are your natural talents? Identifying these things will provide an insight into your strengths. Perhaps you are superb at connecting with people? Maybe you have a gift with children or animals? Skilled organizer? An eye for art? An ear for music? Passionate about making things?
Think of your three natural talents and then for each one ask yourself “who do I need to be in order to be using this strength or talent to its fullest? What do I need to be doing to ensure that my decisions are based on my knowledge of my strengths and talents?”
Think of 3 things in your life that you love and enjoy most. And then ask yourself, “what is one more step….?”
•What is one more step to make my marriage even more outstanding? •What is one thing I can do to maximize time/quality/results I spend doing ……..? •How can I make ………….. even better? •What would ……….. do if he/she was doing this?
Searching for excellence is simply a question of looking at things we do best and things we enjoy most and taking them to next level. Making them even better than they already are.
Excellence isn’t a thing we do. Excellence is a habit we create. When we are constantly asking ourselves “how can I make this even better?” we are on a path of excellence. We are creating a better tomorrow for our lives. We do not settle for what we have, no matter how fantastic and amazing it already is.
