The best softball players practice excellence in all aspects of the game. They don't step outside unless their uniforms are neat and complete and their shoes shine. They warm up with intensity. They hustle. Always. They run on and off the field. They take care of their gloves and bats and always know where their equipment is. They are respectful to umpires and opposing teams. Simply put, when it comes to achieving excellence, the little things matter. Below are some softball quotes on excellence to inspire you:
"Excellence is doing ordinary things extraordinarily well." -- John Gardner"If you'll not settle for anything less than your best, you will be amazed at what you can accomplish in your lives." -- Vince Lombardi
"Excellence is not a skill. It's an attitude." -- Ralph Marston
"Losing a game is heartbreaking. Losing your sense of excellence or worth is a tragedy." -- Joe Paterno
