Commitment to Excellence

"We are what we repeatedly do. Therefore, excellence is not an act, but a habit."

This quote is often related to the teachings of Aristotle.

What influences the experience of excellence in human nature? Excellence, as we have established, is something more than just an action, rather a habitual trait. This must mean that we achieve excellence through experience, just as any other quality in life. To establish a passion that embeds itself into not only one event, but through our own lifestyle. It must start somewhere, and I believe that starts with a drive. Any sort of outside force, a motive that inspires an individual to pursue the desires that they set out for personally with a mentality that focus on the overall goal.

This transgresses into an eventual enlightenment of the situation through experience.

This passion is what leads us to achieving excellence in our lifestyle, but what defines excellence in itself? There is no true way to define a standard of excellence, once more this is all based on perspective of the individual. But in the mindset of an individual, there should be some sort of standard that enables someone to excel in everything that is done. To know what needs to be done, to understand that though passionate pursuit comes the reward of satisfaction, a sensation that surmounts to none other, and without diligence and dedication, cannot truly be achieved. Excellence is only derived from the blood, the sweat, the tears that are produced by one who truly is willing to dedicate themselves to reach their ultimate goal, and beyond.

Commit yourself to excellence. Not only in what you do, in what you are.
