The Bible teaches us that there is a lasting reward for excellence. It brings glory and honor to God, and the world takes notice. It also opens doors of opportunity and invites favor from God (Proverbs 8:18). Excellence also strengthens relationships, increases trust, and boosts self-confidence. Last but not least, it allows individuals to experience a greater level of joy from their accomplishments. In short, excellence is an investment in your own life and the lives of those around you.
