If you just throw your clothes on the floor or leave your dishes in the sink that extra night, what is that communicating to yourself?
It’s saying “this doesn’t really matter.”
And in some ways maybe it doesn’t matter. A little mess here, forgetting about something there…
But what happens when we want to do an outstanding job at something?
We can’t just ‘turn on’ our best work. If you are mostly throwing things aside and forgetting about the details, do you really think you’re suddenly going to be impeccable?
If you want to be outstanding, you have to be outstanding.
How do you do your dishes to your best standard? What is it like to take world class care of your things?
If you want to be outstanding, you have to be outstanding.
