If you have the passion and the dedication needed to achieve your dreams, you will achieve it one day. However, to bring that one day closer, you need to constantly and consistently work to achieve your dreams. Therefore, you can easily say that to achieve your dreams; you have to achieve excellence in your work. Now how to achieve excellence? You may not be able to achieve your dreams on day one, but if you want to achieve excellence from day one, you can do that. If you want to achieve excellence, all you have to do is to stop doing less than excellent works.
Life is too short to drink bad wine

"Strong drink stupefies a man and makes it possible for him to forget; it gives him an artificial cheeriness, an artificial excitement; and the pleasure of this state is increased by the low level of civilization and the narrow empty life to which these men are confined." ~ Alexander Herzen
Beer makes you feel the way you ought to feel without beer.

"Temperance referred not abstaining, but going the right length and no further...of course it may be the duty of a particular Christian, or any Christian, at a particular time, to abstain from strong drink, either because he is the sort of man who cannot drink at all without drinking too much, or because he wants to give the money to the poor, or because he is with people who are inclined to drunkenness and must not encourage them by drinking himself. But the whole point he is abstaining, for a good reason, from something he does not condemn and which he likes to see other people enjoying." ~ C. S. Lewis
Life, alas, is very drear. Up with the glass! Down with the beer!

"When you go apartment-hunting in the South, you encounter little old ladies who ask you if you use strong drink. In New York you encounter paranoids who wonder if you will commit suicide--not that they care; what they worry about is blood on their fresh paint, a dubious smell in the hallway, or a hole in the awning as you pass through on your way to the sidewalk. The Southerner who moves to any part of the country has problems, but the culture shock that attacks the Southerner who moves North is almost indescribable." ~ Florence King
They who drink beer will think beer.

"Temperance referred not abstaining, but going the right length and no further...of course it may be the duty of a particular Christian, or any Christian, at a particular time, to abstain from strong drink, either because he is the sort of man who cannot drink at all without drinking too much, or because he wants to give the money to the poor, or because he is with people who are inclined to drunkenness and must not encourage them by drinking himself.

I try not to drink too much because when I'm drunk, I bite.

""We have heard stories about white men who make the powerful guns and the strong drinks and took slaves away across the seas, but no one thought the stories were true." [said Obierika]"There is no story that is not true," said Uchendu. "The world has no end, and what is good among one people is an abomination with others. We have albinos among us. Do you not think that they came to our clan by mistake, that they have strayed from their way to a land where everybody is like them?"" ~ Chinua Achebe
