Excellence — An act or a habit?

We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is not an act, but a habit.

The above quotation from Aristotle, in my opinion, is 100% true, as I do believe that you’ve achieved excellence in something only if you are able to do it consistently, on a regular basis, as a habit. Achieving excellence in anything you do, needs effort to inculcate that habit. The point that I’m trying to make is — A 10 min walk daily, is more difficult than moving a mountain once. Identify activities like “a 10 min walk”, and work towards transforming them into habits. That, in my opinion, is a commencement towards the path of excellence.

Good Luck for the best in life!
