“We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act but a
habit.” - Aristotle
I love this quote.
Why? Because I’m probably the
most predictable person you will ever meet.
I eat the same food for breakfast every day, I shop at the same places,
I go to the same job, that I love, every day.
I live the word ‘habit’.
I like this quote because it makes me stop and think about
what my habits say about me, and, more importantly, where they will lead
me. Am I walking in excellence every
day? And, if not, what habits do I need
to change?
So, my question for you on this Monday morning is this: what
do you repeatedly do, and is it creating excellence?
If, after you think on that for a minute, you find that you’re
not entirely satisfied with your answer, take heart! All you have to do is change your habits, one
action at a time.
