Pursuing Excellence
“I will walk with integrity of heart…”
--A song from an ancient seeker
Tuesday: “The quality of a person’s life is in direct proportion to their commitment to excellence regardless of their chosen field of endeavor.” --Vince Lombardi
Given the present economic realities in our global culture, I believe that it is critically important to focus on the pursuit of excellence. For a variety of reasons, the world is becoming more integrated and it feels that there is constant call for change. This reality provides an opportunity for me. In my vocation I MUST commit myself to consistent listening to patients, families and fellow associates. It is a time for me to commit to higher personal standards, not because I will have an annual evaluation but because I care about being authentic. It is a time for me to commit to pursuing a new level of excellence.
How are you pursuing excellence in the work you provide? Coach Lombardi says it well. It is probably time for self-assessment. Am I, are you, are we committed to excellence? Have a good week.
