Whether it be in a menial task or a highly lucrative position.
The bar is set when one single person goes above and beyond the requested. Or in a team aspect when a level of achievement is so high and dominant.
We all strive to work towards that standard. Sacrifices are made, tears shed, bodies broken down, relationships made and broken. All for the sake of becoming THE measuring stick.
Sure that's great, one can reach an apex of anything, if they put their mind to it. However what good is it when that's all we do.
The REAL standards are set when the person or people who set it, do it without even thinking.
Did I lose you?
Let me explain myself. I say that because the ones who set the bar of excellence tend to be the ones who have a passion for whatever they do. Sure the passion usually ends up being interconnected with talent. But they do whatever not because they have to, but because they want to. And they do so in an excellent manner. Sure when they first began, they had to have had a goal. But once becoming so wrapped up in a task that brought them joy and happiness, the self-centered thoughts begin to fade away. What replaces it is pure unadulterated results. And for the truly blessed that ends up becoming work or success that is unparalleled. Aka what normal people like me aim to be.
I hope what I said makes sense.
Probably lost you more than once and forgive me for that.
