Excellence

Excellence is about doing the best we can do. We must realize that we cannot be the best at everything we do. We must define what we are or would like to be best at and what someone can do better. Excellence endures and sustains. It goes beyond motivation into the realms of inspiration. Excellence is a great starting point for any new organization. Excellence is about going above and beyond at anything you do.

“Find something that you’re really interested in doing in your life. Pursue it, set goals, and commit yourself to excellence. Do the best you can.” I believe in this quote because in order to achieve excellence you have to figure out what you want to do the rest of your life. Also you need to set goals and just commit yourself to being the best that you can be no matter what happens in life.

Excellence can be achieved anywhere. I work at Walmart and we are always striving to do better with excellence by trying the best we can and to slow down so we stop making so many mistakes. Working there has made me realize to strive for more excellence.

Another way to provide excellence is while we're in school, we're learning and trying our best so we can get a job later on in life. Without school we wouldn't be able to learn and figure out what we want to do the rest of our lives. Everyone achieves excellence at some point in their life whether its by winning a medal for piano, your still achieving excellence whether you think you are or not.

"I do the very best I know how- the ery best I can; and I mean to keep on doing so until the end." This quote is what excellence means to me because everyone tries the very best they can until the day they die.
