- How can I be excellent at this?
- What details do I really need to pay attention to, or improve?
- What else can I do to improve this?
I was reading Tony Robbins this morning, then went in an Hermes shop at lunch; the two, combined, made me think of these questions on the walk back. I don’t live my life actively searching for excellence; if it happens, great, but I don’t ask myself how I can improve nearly enough, much less excel. That is frustrating to me – I feel as if I’ve wasted time. “What do I need to do to excel beyond my wildest imaginations of my capabilities?” isn’t the question; it’s simply searching for excellence, not tomorrow, not even today, but right now, in this moment.
