Excellence

There is a canyon of difference between doing your best to glorify God and doing whatever it takes to glorify yourself. The quest for excellence is a mark of maturity. The quest for power is childish.
- Lucado, Max L.
Excellence Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Excellence

1.
Determine to become one of the best. Sufficient money will almost automatically follow if you get to be one of the best in your chosen field, whatever it is.
Mitchell, Don G.

2.
Then to Silvia let us sing that Silvia is excelling. She excels each mortal thing upon the dull earth dwelling.
Shakespeare, William

3.
To enjoy enduring success we should travel a little in advance of the world.
Mcdonald, John

Let each day be your masterpiece.

5.
There is no top. There are always further heights to reach.
Heifetz, Jascha

6.
Excellence is doing ordinary things extraordinarily well.
Gardner, John W.

7.
It has always been my belief that a man should do his best, regardless of how much he receives for his services, or the number of people he may be serving or the class of people served.
Hill, Napoleon

8.
Set exorbitant standards, and give your people hell when they don't live up to them. There is nothing so demoralizing as a boss who tolerates second rate work.
Ogilvy, David

9.
I start where the last man left off.
Edison, Thomas A.

10.
To enjoy the things we ought and to hate the things we ought has the greatest bearing on excellence of character.
Aristotle

11.
Excellence is best described as doing the right things right -- selecting the most important things to be done and then accomplishing them 100% correctly.

12.
It's enough for you to do it once for a few men to remember you. But if you do it year after year, then many people remember you and they tell it to their children, and their children and grandchildren remember and, if it concerns books, they can read them. And if it's good enough, it will last as long as there are human beings.
Hemingway, Ernest

13.
There is none who cannot teach somebody something, and there is none so excellent but he is excelled.
Gracian, Baltasar

14.
There is only one thing for us to do, and that is to do our level best right where we are every day of our lives; To use our best judgment, and then to trust the rest to that Power which holds the forces of the universe in his hands.
Marden, Orison Swett

15.
It is only in your mind that you have to excel, at anything or everything. Of course, it would be very nice to excel at most things. Indeed, we recommend that you try and do your best. But realistically, you are entitled to do the bare minimum to get by. All your accomplishments are just a bonus, something to enjoy, not requirements. You don't have to do anything to prove that you are worthy of existing.
Albert Ellis, Michael Abrams, Lidia Dengelegi

16.
Anybody who accepts mediocrity -- in school, on the job, in life -- is a person who compromises, and when the leader compromises, the whole organization compromises.
Knight, Charles

17.
There is an infinite difference between a little wrong and just right, between fairly good and the best, between mediocrity and superiority...
Marden, Orison Swett

18.
Excellence is the gradual result of always striving to do better.
Riley, Pat

19.
There's a way to do better... find it.
Edison, Thomas A.

20.
True greatness consists in being great in little things.
Simmons, Charles

21.
When you say you'll meet someone at 11:00 AM, be there at 10:45. When you promise a check on the 30th, send it on the 28th. Whatever you agree to do, do it a bit more. Start with your employees, then extend it to everyone you deal with. News will soon get around that you are a person of your word.
Scott, Charles Prestwich

22.
It's not enough that we do our best; sometimes we have to do what's required.
Sir Winston Churchill

23.
Winners have the ability to step back from the canvas of their lives like an artist gaining perspective. They make their lives a work of art -- an individual masterpiece.
Waitley, Denis

24.
I never had a policy; I have just tried to do my very best each and every day.
Lincoln, Abraham

25.
Superiority -- doing things a little better than anybody else can do them.
Marden, Orison Swett

26.
People forget how fast you did a job, but they remember how well you did it.
Newton, Howard W.

27.
The real contest is always between what you've done and what you're capable of doing. You measure yourself against yourself and nobody else.
Gaberino, Geoffrey

28.
You're probably not a member of a major league baseball team, your errors, unless they are truly spectacular, don't show up in the morning paper.
Goodsell, Jane

29.
The kind of people I look for to fill top management spots are the eager beavers, the mavericks. These are the guys who try to do more than they're expected to do -- they always reach.
Iacocca, Lee

30.
To do the right thing, at the right time, in the right way; to do some things better than they were ever done before; to eliminate errors; to know both sides of the question; to be courteous; to be an example; to work for the love of work; to anticipate requirements; to develop resources; to recognize no impediments; to master circumstances; to act from reason rather than rule; to be satisfied with nothing short of perfection.
Marshall Field & Company

31.
The best we can do is size up the chances, calculate the risks involved, estimate our ability to deal with them, and then make our plans with confidence.
Ford, Henry

32.
We distinguish the excellent man from the common man by saying that the former is the one who makes great demands on himself, and the latter who makes no demands on himself.
Gasset, Jose Ortega Y

33.
Excellence is rarely found, more rarely valued.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

34.
Put the uncommon effort into the common task... make it large by doing it in a great way.
Marden, Orison Swett

35.
Four short words sum up what has lifted most successful individuals above the crowd: a little bit more. They did all that was expected of them and a little bit more.
Vickery, A. Lou

Excellent firms don't believe in excellence -- only in constant improvement and constant change.
Peters, Thomas J.

39.
It is the mark of an instructed mind to rest satisfied with the degree of precision which the nature of the subject admits and not to seek exactness when only an approximation of the truth is possible.
Aristotle

40.
If we want to make something really superb on this planet, there is nothing whatever that can stop us.
Mead, Shepherd

41.
There is no finish line.
Nike Corporation

You do not merely want to be considered just the best of the best. You want to be considered the only ones who do what you do.
Garcia, Jerry

45.
The idea for which this nation stands will not survive if the highest goal free man can set themselves is an amiable mediocrity. Excellence implies striving for the highest standards in every phase of life.
