Excellence is contagious. When you raise the bar for yourself, you naturally raise it for everyone around you. Mikel shares a story about picking up trash while out with his team—an act of excellence that soon inspired them to do the same. True leadership sets a tone others can follow.
Excellence gives permission, not pressure. Howard Schultz once said you can’t have everything, but you can have the things that matter if you put your heart into them. Colossians 3:23 reminds us to work with all our hearts as unto the Lord. Today’s challenge: find one area where you’ve been coasting, and raise the bar. Excellence spreads.
