"Somos lo que hacemos repetidamente. La excelencia, entonces, no es un acto, sino un hábito."
— Will Durant

Simplified Meaning:
This quote means that who we are is shaped by our everyday actions. If someone wants to be excellent at something, it’s not enough to just try hard once in a while; they need to make good habits a regular part of their life. For example, if you want to become a great basketball player, you can't just practice occasionally and expect to improve. You need to practice every day, working on your skills and fitness. Over time, this consistent practice becomes a habit that leads to excellence. Similarly, in school, students who regularly do their homework and study a little bit each day tend to do better than those who cram at the last minute. By making positive behaviors a routine, people can achieve their goals more effectively.
