What I love about my job?
Excellence is an art won by training and habituation.
We have virtue and excellence as we have acted rightly.
We are what we repeatedly do.
Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
I’ve learned that people will forget what you said and did but never forget how you made them feel.
