Quote of the Week

"...While the low performer comes to believe that the easy road is found by avoiding a challenge, they are, in truth, missing out on the pure pleasure of accomplishment. I think that's what Pearl Buck was getting at when she said, 'The secret of joy in work is contained in one word -- excellence. To know how to do something well is to enjoy it.' Ask anyone who has mastered the art of embracing a challenge. In fact, you don't even need to ask. You can see it on their face. They find great joy in accomplishment...."
