Daring Greatly quote from Teddy Roosevelt

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.

Throw back Thursday- Quote of the day

I am careful not to confuse excellence with perfection. Excellence I can reach for; perfection is God’s business. Michael J. Fox

I lived by these words, before I ever heard these words!  I hate when people call me a perfectionist, because I am not. I am so not perfect! I am silly, goofy, I make mistakes 24/7, and I laugh at myself all the time, but when I do something I make sure I do it well. I do things with the goal of doing them correctly. I do my best to make a difference and be the change I want to see in this world.  That is not perfection, that is the goal of being human.

How can you stop trying to be perfect and strive to be excellent?

As you watch this TedTalk look inside yourself and think what does it mean to you? Do you believe you are enough?
