WEEK FORTY-THREE:
YOUR BEST SHOT
"If a man is called to be a street sweeper, he should sweep streets even as Michelangelo painted, or Beethoven played music, or Shakespeare wrote poetry. He should sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, "+ere lived a great street sweeper who did his job well.""
- Martin Luther King Jr.

I remember watching a video documentary on Guinness' Top 100 Record-breakers a few years ago. I was shocked that certain records even existed, and more so that there were people out there who were exceedingly good at it.
From the most mundane of tasks to the most hair – raising dangerous stunts, these people strived to become so good at it that they're names were recorded in history and recognized world-wide.
Whether or not their particular skill earned them an income, these people were content with the simple fact that they tried their best and became the best. What do you do well? Do you give it your best shot?
