Types of excellence
Excellence is worth pursuing more than money or status. However, the idea of excellence holds a subtle distinction.
- Excellence can be considered as a universal standard. To get 99% is more excellent than 90%. We line up everything and measure them against a common yardstick.
- Excellence can be thought of as a niche. The whale isn't better than a butterfly in a meaningful way. They need to follow different strategies to survive.
