Excellence is not a skill. It is an attitude. Ralph Marston
The Japanese have a term called kaizen which means constant, never-ending improvement. This is what the warrior should shoot for in every area of his life – constant, never-ending improvement. No matter how well you have mastered any skill, there is always room for at least a little more improvement. Booker T. Washington stated, “Excellence is to do a common thing in an uncommon way.” This is how the true warrior does everything in his life.
The vast majority of people in this world merely do the minimum. Their attitude seems to be that good enough is good enough. Good enough is rarely good enough for the warrior; he seeks perfection and excellence. This doesn’t mean that everything that he does will be done to perfection, but he will at least try his best to do everything he does to the best of his ability. He puts his whole heart into whatever he may be working on at the time.
This is something that he requires of himself. Nobody is going to make you live a life of excellence. Nobody is going to hound you to be the best that you can be in life.
