Too many want 5 minutes of fame instead of working 10,000 hours to become great. Fame doesn’t last. Character through hard work does.

Think about those people in your life, those people you’ve encountered in the past, that inspire you. Think about leaders that light a spark . . . that bring energy to a room. In any field, in any organization, there are those with talent and those who work. The elite have identified their talent and put in the work.
Don’t seek fame . . . seek effort. Identify your interests, develop your skills, and do the work. Strive to be the leader that inspires others . . . be the person others want to work with because of your character.
