A student went to
his teacher. “I shall not continue with my studies” he said. “I live in a small
house with my brothers and parents, and never have the ideal conditions for
concentrating on that which is important.”
The teacher pointed
to the sun and asked his student to place his hand over his face, in order to
hide it. The student obeyed.
“Your hand is
small, yet it can completely cover the power, light and majesty of the great
sun. In the same way, the small problems manage to give you the excuse you need
in order to hinder your progress along your life.”
“Just as your hand
has the power to hide the sun, mediocrity has the power to hide your inner
light. Do not blame others for your own incompetence.”

“There is an infinite difference between a little wrong and just right, between fairly good and the best, between mediocrity and superiority.”
