Inspiring quote to commence the new month

Got this from my Neale Donald subscriptions.

I believe God wants you to know...
...that the quality of one's life is 

in direct proportion to one's commitment 

to excellence, regardless of their endeavor.

Vince Lombardi said that, and he was right.

Are you committed to excellence in everything you think and say and do? 

Ah, yes, it is about thoughts and words too, not just about actions. 

Are your thoughts and words excellent?
And your actions, too?

This does not mean that you must be without errors, by the way,
but only that you must seek to correct them. 

Do not confuse excellence with perfection. 

The first is possible to achieve; the second is probably not.
