Excellence is

I found the following words pinned to a noticeboard at work:

Excellence is:

  • The result of caring more than others think is wise
  • Risking more than others think is safe
  • Dreaming more than others think is practical
  • And expecting more than others think is possible.

While I am not normally suckered-in by corporate spiel, I thought these words were pretty cool. Somehow they remind me of the Ubuntu community.

    I saw that exact quote (excellence is….) in MS Word (in one of the support pieces) and is was attributed to Mac Anderson. I've used it in my email signature.

    I've always appreciated this quote. The Eagle picture in frame with this quote underneath has been in my office for nearly 6 years. It has been something I've always believed is a key to my business philosophy and those that work for me know it is out collective pursuit of Excellence that distinguishes us from the rest.

    @C. Chapman, do you happen to know who the quote belongs to?
