A man once visited a temple under construction where he saw a sculptor making an idol of God. Suddenly he noticed a similar idol lying nearby. Surprised, he asked the sculptor, "Do you need two statues of the same idol?" "No," said the sculptor without looking up, "We need   only one, but the first one got damaged at the last stage." The gentleman examined the idol and found no apparent damage. "Where is the damage?" he asked. "There is a scratch on the nose of the idol." said the sculptor, still busy with his work.  "Where are you   going to install the idol?" The sculptor replied that it would be installed on a pillar twenty feet high. "If the idol is that far, who is going to know that there is a scratch on the nose?" the gentleman asked.

The sculptor stopped his work, looked up at the gentleman, smiled and said, "I will know it."


The desire to excel is exclusive of the fact whether someone else appreciates it or not.

"Excellence" is a drive from inside, not outside.

Excellence is not for someone else to notice but for your own satisfaction.

"I am careful not to confuse excellence with perfection. Excellence, I can reach for; perfection is God's business."

In life we strive for excellence. We need to set the bar high, reach for the clouds and touch the sky. If we all understand the importance of benchmarking against excellence, then you as an individual can set the bar higher for your self and lead the way for the continent, and perhaps some day the world as a whole.Never underestimate the power of change.

Its a nice article but It can not be implemented fully in todays scenario. In manufacturing we have a manufacturing tolerance. If you go for small band of tolerance, manufacturing cost will be high. If go for wider range of tolerance, cost will be less. So based on application, tolerance is decided.

I fully agree and inspired by ur article that perfection comes from within and not from outside. The only thing i would like to say that we should keep on try to become perfectionist but at the same time we should follow the requirement of time. We can not spent too much time for a given task in todays demanding world. But, Yes, We can improve ourselve further always and we should.

 Excellent article.............Excellence is the state or quality of excelling. Particularly in the field of business and organizations, excellence is considered to be an important value, and a goal to be pursued.

Rightly said "Excellence is not for someone else to notice but for your own satisfaction."
One should not see if others are doing their work to perfection or not, they should only try to improve their work and should try to attain perfection in that.

Great, in every professional there is a perfectionist, and as said by the man only he knows the flaw. Let's implement this idea too to give our best to the society.

I suggest steel is better. Infact if we see TMT rods are very much useful now a days because of its resistance and strength. It is very much available in steel market with high quality performance. Infact BIU also prefers the same.
I think it is not true. It is only to chnage the mentality of the common public. General view is that nothing has changed much.
