What is Excellence? How is it measured? When I think of greatness or great qualities, I’m overwhelmed by the impact greatness has had on our history. Sometimes greatness seems so hard to achieve. I always have to remind myself that people arn’t born great, they grow into
greatness. The choices great people make and causes they advocate are what make them excellent. Aristotle once said, we are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is not an act but a habit. As subjective as greatness may be, there must be qualities and habits that make becoming great easier, right?

Qualities like determination, dedication, and endurance are indicative of greatness and excellence. And If ‘excellence… is not an act but a habit’ then excelling or becoming great simply involves practicing these qualities until its they become almost involuntary.

Determination: a fixed purpose or intention

Dedication: the state of being devoted wholly and earnestly, as to some person or purpose

Endurance: the ability or strength to continue or last, esp. despite fatigue, stress, or other adverse conditions; stamina

I like to read over what these words mean by definition, somehow it makes them easier to apply to me. IDK… I’m just thinking out loud here…

What is greatness and how does one become great, to you?
