Quote: Perfection Is Not Realistic

Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence. – Vince Lombardi

Perfection Is Not…

Winston Churchill may have said “perfection is the enemy of progress,” but Green Bay Packers coach Vince Lombardi thought the oppposite.

His statement was clearly focused on chasing greatness being the solution to overcoming mediocrity. Lombardi would lead the Pack to a Super Bowl I victory and is considered one of the more successful coaches throughout NFL history.

Lombardi’s quotes are used in motivational lectures across the United States. Perhaps they contributed to Aaron Rodgers perfect first half in yesterday’s game against the Chicago Bears.
