Last Chance Harvey

I had a lovely time today; I went to see “Last Chance Harvey”, a film I’ve been looking forward to ever since I first heard anything about it.  It is a gentle romcom starring Dustin Hoffman and Emma Thompson.  It was every bit as lovely as I thought it would be; a perfect little movie.  One of the things that I enjoyed was watching two such superb actors making the whole thing appear utterly effortless.  It left me wishing that I achieve just a tiny bit of the excellence that they have in any field of endeavour.

When we give ourselves to the things that we love and get out of our own way, it can be amazing how good we can be.  I wondered if you had any examples of this you would care to share? 

“Excellence is in the details. Give attention to the details and excellence will come.”  Perry Paxton

“Excellence can be obtained if you:
…care more than others think is wise;
…risk more than others think is safe;
…dream more than others think is practical;
…expect more than others think is possible.”
