A German once visited a temple under
construction where he saw a sculptor making an idol of God..
Suddenly he noticed a similar idol lying nearby. Surprised,
he asked the sculptor, "Do you need two statues of the
same idol?" "No," said the sculptor without
looking up, "We need only one, but the first one got
damaged at the last stage." The gentleman examined the
idol and found no apparent damage. "Where is the
damage?" he asked. "There is a scratch on the nose
of the idol." said the sculptor, still busy with his
work. "Where are you going to install the idol?"
The sculptor replied that it would be installed on a pillar
twenty feet high. "If the idol is that far, who is
going to know that there is a scratch on the nose?" the
gentleman asked. The sculptor stopped his work, looked up at
the gentleman, smiled and said, "I will know it."
The desire to excel is exclusive of the fact whether
someone else appreciates it or not.
ยท "Excellence" is a drive from inside,
not outside.
Excellence is not for someone else to notice but for your
own satisfaction and efficiency...
