Improvement is a descriptive word because it can be viewed in incremental terms. Improvement happens over time. You don't play Chopin before you play chopsticks.
Improvement doesn't mean perfection. It doesn't mean you've arrived. It doesn't even mean you're very good. It means you're better than you once were. My high school football team gave out an award for "Most Improved Player" to the person who had shown the biggest improvement from one season to the next. It was a highly respected award because everyone on the team knew how hard that player must have worked.
Improvement is not limited to the football field.

When we talk in terms of success and personal growth, we need to think of continual improvement. When we improve ourselves, we open up our lives to new opportunities. We're able to handle more responsibilities. We're able to contribute more to others. That means we're more valuable.
If you're more valuable, you're worth more to an employer or client. In this economy, that's important, don't you think?
