Good - The Enemy of Great

I came across this recently and found it very applicable to the situatio we were in. Las tyear we proved we were good, but we have to find a way to become great. Complacency will prevent greatness. I had the guys read this and we discussed it as a group, and they really had good thoughts about what it would take to go from good to great.

Good-The Enemy of Great

The biggest gap and the hardest jump is going from good to great. Your responsibility is to decide whether you like being good…or whether you can not live without being great.

At first glance, we all say we want to be great, yet only the select few truly understand that “good is the enemy of great.”

Only a select few are unable to sleep at night when they put forth a good effort and not a great one.

Good is easy. Great is the hardest thing you will ever attempt in your life. Good is rewarding…great is everlasting. The transition requires more than hard work; it requires working hard on the right things; it requires working hard and working smart. You’ve got to practice with purpose.
