The Perfection To Excellence !

 “ Always aim at perfection for only then will you achieve excellence “. A famous quote by J. R. D. Tata. Have you ever aimed for perfection? What is the last thing you have done with 100  percent perfection? 

To be honest, I don't remember what was the last thing I had done with 100 percent perfection. If you remember what was yours you can surely share. 

What is this perfection? Imagine your teacher had given you some assignment. The work you have done was not that satisfying for the teacher. The teacher asked you to redo. So you reworked the entire assignment and submitted. But the teacher was still expecting more from your side. Again it was given for rework. This time you put some more effort into it and submitted. The teacher was satisfied and accepted your work. 

What had actually happened here. The teacher was expecting a perfect assignment from your side. Your expertise in that topic was improving as she asked you to rework again and again. 

That is exactly what is happening. By striving to be more perfect, you are actually excelling. We have actually seen that we reach excellence when we try for perfection. But what is required for perfection? It's just two things. Simple in theory, but difficult in practice. That is none other than hard work and constant determination.

Excellence and perfection don't happen overnight. It takes months, years or even half of our lifetime. Don’t quit when you get late for the result. Keep trying, and that is the secret key for excellence. 

Let's keep it short and sweet. Before I conclude, I'd like to share the short story about Thomas Alva Edison. He was an American Inventor. He developed many devices in the field of electric power. When Edison was a small boy he was told by the teachers that ‘he was so stupid to learn anything’. He believed he was a slow learner. His academic life was not great, and he even lost two jobs because of his lack of productivity. He tried the invention of almost 1000s of light bulbs. But they didn’t come up that well. However, he believed in himself. He was not ready to quit. He continued his hard work with determination. At last he found something big. He invented many devices in the fields of electric power generation, mass communication, sound recording and motion pictures. Many patents were awarded to him.

Perfection, excellence, success, .. everything is possible to you. All you need to do is to work hard with determination. All the best. Keep moving. Don’t forget to keep your beautiful smile on your beautiful face. Have a great, pleasant day 🙂
