Do you need a motivational moment to get your week started off right? Here is something for you to think about today...

So many employers tell us to strive for excellence - well here is a thought...

"Instead of striving for excellence, strive for distinction." M Sanborn

Why? Excellence is a fixed point in time, a single accomplishment. Distinction means you're a step above the rest. You are the one and only. Distinction truly sets you apart from the rest. Strive for distinction in your work!
Interesting. I suppose also that once one has achieved excellence there is really nowhere to gobut down, whereas distinction may expand and build on itself.
