GET UP, STAND UP AND GO!
If I cannot do great things, I can do small things in a great way. - Dr ML King
Excellence is representing greatness to the world. It can be described as an internal commitment to get up, stand up and go. Being better than you were yesterday or to be fully engaged, going above and beyond the norm. So celebrate what you have accomplished, raise the bar a little higher each time you succeed.
We need to take pride in our own efforts on a daily basis. It is basically going the extra mile and standing out from the rest of the crowd. So, be encouraged, God has hope for you, despite the trails that you have or will face.
Without pursuing excellence, life will remain bland, very vanilla, luke warm at its best. The quest for excellence fuels our fire and keeps us from just drifting downstream gathering debris. Have the will to win, the desire to succeed, the urge to reach your full potential, these are the keys that will unlock the door to personal excellence.
2 Corinthians 8:7 "But since you excel in everything - in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in complete earnestness and in the love we have kindled in you - see that you also excel in this grace of giving"
