Was just thinking of the topic of the blog I have created 3 years ago.
For me the answer is yes and no.
Yes .. when I see the likes of the big consulting companies that look for excellence in your academics,work ex and extra curriculars as an indicator of your future performance.They are ruthless to punish you for any mediocre performance or lacuna in something.
No..when the likes of Australian army rejects people who have been throughout winners in life and never had a single failure.They argue that never seeing a failure, will not make a person strong enough to counter and take decisions when he has failed in his job in the army.He will not be able to give corrective actions and reactions.
Its important to fail in life and strive hard to reach excellence.
But what is more important is to enjoy travelling from failure to excellence.
As they say in 3 idiots , Strive for Excellence , Success will come to you any which way.
