<p>When you are not making the most of your potential then you are allowing others to set the standards for you. You should not allow your critics or competitors to determine the standards that you set for youreslf.</p>
<p> As a martial artist of thirty years I am still always striving for exellence in my forms and techniques and am applying this concept to my blog.</p>
<p> Psychology professor Jon Johnson points out the difference between mere success and excellence: &#8220;Success bases our worth on a comparison with others; excellence measures against our own potential. Success grants its rewards to the few but is the dream of the multitudes. Excellence is available to all living beings, but is accepted only by the few.&#8221;</p>
<p> What steps are you taking to improve your strive for excellence with your blog?</p>
