Morning Motivator - Be Excellent

"Life doesn't require that we be the best, only that we try our best. Strive for excellence, not perfection."
- H. Jackson Brown Jr.

How much PRESSURE are you placing on yourself to perform daily? When you go to work, do you FEEL as though you must be perfect to get ahead? At what level is your PERFORMANCE strong enough to be "EXCELLENT?"

Many people are placing EXTREME amounts of pressure on themselves to be "perfect" in their daily lives and creating an expectation that may be challenging to maintain. If you "fail" to be perfect, will you be UPSET?

To me, "EXCELLENCE" is the top level of performance in a group measurement. If you are in the top 50% of performers, you can EXPECT to find success. If you perform in the top 20%, you will see that your success is VERY HIGH. When you ACHIEVE like the top 3% of performers, you will find yourself fulfilling ALL your dreams. No need to be perfect after all...

2 DEGREE SUCCESS STEP:
Learning to ALLEVIATE the pressure of excellence starts with learning to accept yourself as an EXCELLENT person.

Self-confidence and a CARING nature towards yourself will help you to realize that even if you are NOT perfect, your QUALITY as an individual does not change.

Not a single profession is expected to be PERFECT. No single person is expected to be PERFECT. The reality is... Perfect does not exist... So seek EXCELLENCE and enjoy the fact that no one else is perfect either.

Cheers,
Zach
