Hi,
In general Excellence means " one who excels in something to the heights is excellence" but in my prospective...the one who has the right attitude and uses it in correct way for enlightening others life is EXCELLENCE.
Now ,tell us what you wanted to share with us.

Very Nice attempt by all of my friends, sp. vithica nad swapna...who included aspect of enlightment for others too.
Very simply quoting, Excellence is
" To develop acute and thorogh understanding for anything so as to maximize the potential and to live in harmony
at all levels [ myself, family, society and nature ] of my being, ensuring continuity of happiness.
For achieving excellence, I need to be ready to understand from the other if the other has better understanding than me.
The other has similar acceptance.
Ironically, we are told 100 times, "if you are to survive in this world, competition is a must. And it gets ingrained in us. What is the fact?
The fact is that we dont want to live in competition (or to say, friction) with our fellow beings? Because How can a feeling of opposition give us happiness ? (let me reinforce that the most basic aspiration of all human beings is Happiness and its continuity)
So the fact is let us ask ourselves if not competition, then what if we are to forge ahead? and then it should be naturally acceptable to me too?
It is excellence...which is described above and which is naturally acceptable to me because it gives true happpiness and that too of enduring nature.
Your remarks are welcome on this...pls

I have seen a display board near lift in hotel in Delhi abt Excellence. The same is reproduced below for benefirt all friends on this forum.
Quote:
"Excellence is the gradual result of always wanting to do better."
Now just think!
Do you expect the best of people? of yoursellf?
From today, begin expecting best of everyone and start a habit that ensures a wonderful outcome.
Remember that , High Expectations of others(of yourself) can inspire confidence and incredible results, results beyond what anyone may have thought possible."

This is really a wonderful definition of Excellence.

Hi ocean_waves,
Excellence is the state or quality of excelling.
The pursuit of excellence is not :
- a quest for superiority
- about "competition"
- about "outstripping others"
It is about being one's best.
This quote by Schlesinger says it all :
"Excellence is the eternal quest. We achieve it by living up to our highest intellectual standards and our finest moral intuitions. In seeking excellence, take life seriously – but not yourself !"
~ Arthur Schlesinger, Jr.

Excellence is like "Ocean Waves", which can make its formation exactly according to the waves, flowing pattern and strength of the surrounding air, similar to what you (ocean_waves) may be forming your own ideas from the flow of concepts of other members.
