Excellence is not itself a skill. Excellence is an attitude that greatly multiplies the value of all the skills you have.
Excellence is certainly within your reach. All you have to do is make a firm commitment to it, and then stick with that commitment.
Whatever you have the opportunity to do, choose to do it with excellence. Invest your passions, your commitment, your attention to detail, your thoroughness, your persistence, and excellence will be the result.
Not everyone fully appreciates excellence. However, those people who do value excellence are the ones you would be wise to have on your side.
The effort you put into creating excellence will pay off many times over. Excellence can be difficult work, and that work will be richly rewarded.
No matter what kind of work you do, you can always use it as an opportunity to create excellence. With excellence comes a richness of life that grows stronger as time goes on.
