You become the master of what you master.
~ Matshona Dhliwayo
Excellence is the key that opens successes' door.
Excellence in obscurity is better than mediocrity in the spotlight.
Excellence is the best ink with which to make your mark in the world.
Carving your own path gets you to greatness quicker than following someone else's trail.
An ambitious amateur will rise above a complacent master.
Life is a stage: perform your masterpiece.
Your original self is worth more than your imitation of someone else.
Busy hands achieve more than idle tongues.
Flowers are prettiest where they are watered the most.
Light the candle of success with the flame of excellence.
Geniuses’ steps take you higher than talent’s leaps.
Brilliance is the masterpiece of your mind. Excellence is the masterpiece of your heart. Genius is the masterpiece of your soul.
Excellence has a loud mouth, let it speak on your behalf.
Bend the rules only if you have learned them, break the rules only if you have mastered them.
How well you do something determines how well you will be rewarded by it.
To be envied for your giftedness is better than to be accepted for your untalentedness.
Rising amateurs always intimidate falling masters.
Weeds blend in, roses stand out.
Flawed genius is better than flawless talent.
The cream rises to the top, even if sour.
Paying the price for your dreams proves you can afford them.
Dream the impossible.See the impossible.Pursue the impossible.Achieve the impossible.
Taking the road less travelled is easier, there is less congestion.
Transcend your doubts.Transcend your fears.Transcend your weaknesses.Transcend your limits.
There is no limit to what your mind can achieve,ask King Solomon.There is no limit to what your heart can achieve,ask King David.There is no limit to what your soul can achieve,ask King Jesus.
Let your work speak for itself:If poor, it will remain silent.If average, it will whisper.If good, it will talk.If great, it will shout.If genius, it will sing.
If you are a musician,sing to one as if you were singing to a million.If you are a dancer,dance to one as if you were dancing to a million.If you are a performer,perform to one as if you were performing to a million.
Dream what others do not.Imagine what others have not.Do what others will not.Achieve what others could not.
Renounce poor work.Shun trivial work.Entertain respectable work.Welcome superior work.Honor transcendent work.
Make your mark now.Make your mark today.Make your mark forever.
Dream the impossible.See the invisible.Pursue the intangible.Achieve the incredible.
It is at the edge of excellence that genius awaits.
Stand out because you think differently.Stand out because you speak differently.Stand out because you act differently.Stand out because you work differently.Stand out because you live differently.

~ Mark F. Lamoure
Ask yourself at least once a week: Am I on the right track to achieve my goals at this time? Am I doing the right things that I need to be doing?
Never stop growing in life. The world's tallest redwood trees were once little nuts, that kept on growing, regardless of weather, trials and tribulations.
You are the sculptor of your success. Chisel and carve yourself into excellence.
