The Excellence Code: Aristotle's Secret to Habits That Change Your Life

from Leading Your Best Life with Leigh Farnell · host Leigh Farnell with the help of AI

This podcast starts with a shock.. The quote I thought was from Aristotle is not from Aristotle.. It doesn't make the teaching point any less important. Find out what we are talking about when it comes to habits and excellence. We then have a Habits and Excellence song for you to share with your team at work, your sporting team and your family. What if the ancient wisdom of Aristotle held the key to modern performance? In this episode, we decode the timeless principle that "we are what we repeatedly do" and show you how to turn excellence into a daily habit—not an accident.  Plus, enjoy a special teaching song to lock the lesson into your mind and your muscle memory.   Verse] Perfection's a ghost we can't ever hold  A whisper of gold in the stories we're told But if we keep chasing that endless shine Excellence greets us at the edge of the line [Chorus] We are what we do day after day Building the sky in our own special way Not just a spark it's a fire we feed Excellence blooms when habits take seed [Verse 2] If you quit once it carves a path in stone  A road that will echo when you're alone But fight through the doubt let it burn in your chest Habits of greatness will give you the rest [Chorus] We are what we do day after day Building the sky in our own special way Not just a spark it's a fire we feed Excellence blooms when habits take seed [Bridge] Falling's a lesson a chapter to write  The climb's what will gift us the thrill of the height It's not in the finish but all in the grind Where we find the treasure we were meant to find [Chorus] We are what we do day after day   Building the sky in our own special way Not just a spark it's a fire we feed Excellence blooms when habits take seed
