Aaron Rodgers Quotes

I expect perfection from myself.

I keep setting the bar higher for myself in terms of what I'm trying to accomplish.

I'm such a perfectionist. I want to do better and better.

No one puts higher expectations on themselves than I do.

Only the mediocre are always at their best. If your standards are low, it is easy to meet those standards every single day, every single year. But if your standard is to be the best, there will be days when you fall short of that goal. It is okay to not win every game. The only problem would be if you allow a loss or a failure to change your standards. Keep your standards intact, keep the bar set high, and continue to try your very best every day to meet those standards. If you do that, you can always be proud of the work that you do.

Perhaps it's true that I'm very hard on myself, but that's better than exhibiting mediocre work... too few were satisfactory enough to trouble the public with.

Looking for perfection is the only way to motivate yourself.

I am never satisfied with myself and that is what keeps me going - I have no post-satisfaction.
