Jim Collins wrote a timeless classic book entitled Good To Great that many people have read. In this book, Collins explained about how great companies separate themselves from being just good companies. While there are many great concepts and quotes found in his book, the one quote that I love is:

“Good is the enemy of Great!”

I have used this quote with the athletes and business leaders that I coach as well as the companies that I serve as a consultant to talk about what this means for their performance, their teams, and their organization or company. In today’s podcast episode of Monday Morning Moments, I share the difference between “good players vs great players” in sports and relate it to any other role that you play in business and life.
