Trying to be perfect left me frustrated and defeated, I was imperfect, broken, and fallible. Perfection was unattainable in my life, but I could continuously pursue Excellence in everything that I do.

As I defined myself and refined my mindset, I realized that development and growth for every human being starts in a state of imperfection. It’s just true, our body, our minds, the systems and structure we live in, none of it is perfect or ever will be perfect as long as humans are involved.

The proper perspective for growth for me is to retain what works well, build on it, improve it, and correct the mistakes. I can and should always be moving toward Excellence. For me, the pursuit of Excellence understands that making improvements will require me to take purposeful risks; taking risks means making mistakes. If I’m not making mistakes, I’m not learning; I’m not aiming high enough or pushing hard enough. My pursuit of Excellence requires me to fix those mistakes and not to make them again.

I understand that I am imperfect, but I make no excuses. Minute by minute, day to day, I’m working to improve to develop Excellence in my life. That’s the way it works for me. My life is a constant journey to get better by daily re aiming at the value of Excellence, and that journey won’t end until I’m dead.

KEEP COMING FORWARD!!
