CHASE YOUR PASSION & EXCELLENCE WILL CHASE YOU

Colin Powell said, “If you are going to achieve excellence in big things, you develop the habit in little matters. Excellence is not an exception, it is a prevailing attitude.”

So, no one will ever get to know what’s excellence till the time he/she will polish itself in something which matters him/her a lot and that’s the same thing Powell wanted to say. One has to inculcate more hard work, more concentration, more focus on the thing one want to focus, and these all the activities are done with one’s passion, one’s interests and one’s most loved career.

Confucius said, “The will to win, the desire to succeed, the urge to reach your full potential. These are the keys that will unlock the door to personal excellence.”

Excellence is a simple 10 letters word which has deep meanings, but what does excellence actually means. To know this term, you have to take a deep dive into it. To achieve excellence in your life, you need to follow your passion, because “Passion is the only thing which makes you successful in life”.
One can easily get a job and can live life but there will be no meaning of such job because when work is thrown on someone it is impossible to work with full dedication, efficiency and effectiveness. But if a person takes incremental step by step for achieving something big according to its talent, skill and interest then that same life will become an interesting and successful life. Success never comes by calling it but you have to be extraordinary for being successful or meaningful but an ordinary trial can also lead to a successful life.
Passion is like oxygen, so do the fuller utilization of this resource, you will be successful in every step of life, and excellence is the most important part of passion because if you will run after your passion the excellence in that field will itself run towards you. Because if you are passionate about something, you love some career or some field, you’ll yourself gain more excellence, knowledge in that part of your life and that same thing will lead you towards a meaningful success.

Vinci Lombardi said,“Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.”

Yes, the statement is truly presented. It’s true that excellence is not easily attainable, you have to prove yourself daily, in every sector of life. You have to do everything just for “YOURSELF” because YOUR PASSION YOUR DREAMS ARE THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS THE MOST AND MAKE YOU SMARTER THAN OTHERSthat makes you different from society. Life is not only about living but it is also about following your dreams because this quality of yours is the one which each and every person aspire for.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow said, “In character, in manner, in style, in all things, the supreme excellence is simplicity.”

So it’s not important that you always think big because either you think big or think small but whether thinking is not implemented then everything is fake and meaningless. So it doesn’t matter what you think about your life but what matters the most is how much you are working on that thinking. Your excellence which will become your career survival whether it’s of any kind will polish more and you, your supremacy and supremacy leads you towards your simplicity.

But the point is how you achieve excellence? , is there any straight way to achieve it? The answer is “NO”. Excellence is not a born quality, it does not come when you are born, and you have to achieve it. EARN IT, CULTIVATE YOUR HARDWORK, USE YOUR BRAIN AS PRODUCTION SLOT & MANAGE TIME WITH A SMART WORK. Excellence is a combination of performance & smart work. Excellence creates differentiation. It makes you extraordinary. It makes you highlighted because everyone cannot manage. You should be passionate about your dreams, you should find your talent because you can achieve success if you do that work that makes you happy because happy work leads to better work. You should do smart work not hard work. These words may look similar but they have two deep meanings. Doing one work in 4 hours is useless if another person can do the same work in 2 hours, so always CHOOSE THE CORRECT OPPORTUNITY IN YOU AS YOUR PASSION AND DO YOUR SWOT ANALYSIS. It is a race to be superior.

Everyone wants to be perfect but for attaining perfection, one should catch excellence and one can make his/her life far better than others and can touch the sky.

“BECAUSE THERE IS NO LIMIT TO FLY HIGH IN THE SKY, JUST OPEN YOUR WINGS AND AIM HIGH”
