After Dean supported me so nicely in moving my blog to nomadlife, and hijacked my blog with the password I gave him, I realised it´s time to post something myself.
In the last weeks I have realised that the thing that really motivates me is excellence: I get motivated when I perform excellently, when I see a project or an action has the potential to be excellent.
Linked to that, I am thinking about the essential question: "What is excellence?"
To use the example of a milkpan:
Is excellence if everyone benefiting from the milkpan is satisfied? Is excellence if your individual goals (creating a milkpan fulfilling some standards) have been achieved? Or is it something else? Is excellence something that fulfills its purpose in the best possible way?? (A milkpan that boils milk in a very good way).
Can something still be excellent when we get critized for it? Is something only excellent when it exceeds expectations? Is something excellent always without mistakes?
In my head are many answers for these questions, but none is final.
If you have any thoughts to share, they are very welcome.
