Do you have excellent performance?

Wheel of Personal Excellence
"Six-C" formula for achieving excellence in your learning.
Clear Focus:
" A person who aims at nothing is sure to hit it." Anonymous.
Central to all performance is the capacity to Focus.
It is the ability to focus what is relevant and to stay focused for the duration of the task.
Having Long Term Goal will direct you to the line of focus, But stick on to Immediate goals( only a part of long term goals) will provide the energy to focus. As Stephen pointed out, doing important and not urgent task always leads us to personal excellence.
Commitment
"Loser make promises they often break,
Winner make commitments they always keep.
/Denis Waitley/
Willingness and determination to put the required efforts,
Make the necessary sacrifices until the goals are achieved.
Life in this world is like a cafeteria, where you could get anything, but First you have to pay the price of it.
Check you Readiness
" The minds are like parachute- it works best when open." /Albert Einstein/
Having the best mindset for a particular task
Developing ways to insist that whenever required.
Having Passion for what we are going to achieve.
Confidence
"If you think you can, you are right.
If you think you can't , you are still right." /Hendry Ford/
Having faith in one's ability to perform a specific task or achieve a specific goal.
Control
" Any occurrence requiring undivided attention will be accompanied by an compelling distraction. /Hutchison's Law/
Distraction may arise from internal sources like negative thought, worries, unrealistic expectations, and from external sources like disruptive comments, critics or delays.
We could have an compelling distraction.
Continueous Learning
"An unexamined life is not worth living." /Plato/
Component of excellence relies on a willingness on the part of individuals to learn from every experience, to develop a culture of self-monitoring and self-reflection in order to draw out the lessons learned and to act upon them in future.
Every setback is an golden opportunity to learn. Failure is the stepping stone for success.
If the above wheel is well and good, it could flow easily, and smoothly. If you develop the above qualities your reach to excellence is also easy and smooth.
Once you loose some aspect of this "Six-C" formula, Imagine, what will happen if the wheel is not in shape, circle. You will get stucked in the floor, your reach to goal may get delayed.
