About This Quote
“The quality of a man's life is in direct proportion to his commitment to excellence, regardless of his chosen field of endeavor.” If you put an average person in a high-stress environment, there's a good chance they won't be able to handle the pressure well. And, if you put an exceptional person in a low-stress environment, there's a good chance they won't be able to handle the pressure well either. The key is balance. If you're not careful, that balancing act can get very difficult.
You can become too stressed to think clearly or too calm to feel anything. And, the worst part is that you might not even notice when things start slipping out of balance.
