Be the best, at everything you do

It’s no use comparing yourself to everyone in the world and being "better" than everyone else.  Look at one-self and ask, did I do the best that I could of?  Could I have done it a different way? There is only so much that one can do. We have built-in limitations, restrictions and boundaries.  A blind person cannot take photographs for example.

When ok is enough - When everyone else has not tried their best and your ok was better than their lack of trying.  We all experience this situation and sadly many will settle for this.  In an over-crowded market place, where everyone is trying to compete with each.  Good enough will not do anymore.  Being the best is the only thing that will make you noticed.

Autority charms crowds - In bookstores, the best-selling authors are on display.  Authors that we are familiar with. Blockbuster movies staring famous superstars, whom audiences love. It’s the same everywhere. Authority charms crowds. The authority these people have come from being the best in their fields.  We recognise the names of writers like James Patterson or Stephen King.  We recognise the names of actors like Johnny Depp or George Clooney.  We know Venus Williams and Roger Federer as top tennis player.  We also know Alber Einstein and Stephen Hawking as brilliant scientist.  They all on top of their game and that's a very good reason to strive to be the best.

Perfection is a lifestyle - Talking about being the best is not good enough.  It’s a lifestyle that we choice

“We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.” –Aristotle.

Habits are hard to establish.  It takes repetitive  intentional action.  Like getting up at a set time every morning. You must intentionally set your alarm on and force yourself out of bed every day.  You must repeat this over and over until it becomes automatically. How one does things is up to YOU. We make that choice intentionally that we are going to give everything our best and make sure we focus on it, with all our effort and energy.  Do this until it becomes a habit. One day you simply discover the "doing your best" has become a habit!  

Secret keys - Let's face it.  It’s going to be very hard to be excellent or top-class or brilliant at everything.  Even Einstein couldn’t find his way to the neighbourhood grocery store! (He said, famously, “I don’t clutter up my mind with trivia!”).  We don't need to be brilliant at everything, only things that truly matter to us!!

Being able -  Giving the best to what you are capable of doing.  Intent and practices, until it becomes a habit. Your attempt at being best will eventually make you the very best.

Being willing -  Have a passion for what you do.  Being passionate will guarantee you that you give whatever your best shot.  You can become passionate about anything in life!!!  Hardship and the enormity of the task, is a challenge that makes you want to face things head on.

Be the Best  - Set a task, something in your capabilities and something in have passion for.  Make it your challenge for the week.  Then set out to do it putting the best into it.  See how it feels!!

Be the Best!!!
