POSITIVE THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK (Week 5)





I DON'T BELIEVE IN SUCCESS

I don't believe in success, but I do believe in excellence.

The biggest problem with success is I don't know what it is, and it's hard to hold on to.  It's like a wet bar of soap that keeps sliding out of my hands.  Just when I think I have success, away it goes.

Excellence is different.  Everyone can instantly recognize excellence, and it's an attainable goal.

I believe that God has given everyone the ability to achieve excellence in at least one area of their life.  God has programmed people so that they feel good about themselves when then develop an area of excellence.  Mediocrity doesn't feel right.  When you pursue mediocrity, you feel like you are wasting your life.

My goal is to pursue excellence in whatever I do.  I don't think about my work in terms of success.  Instead, my total focus is on excellence.  Success comes and goes, but excellence lasts forever.
