Mentorship #3
March 6, 2015
"Greatness is evolving in the business world." Dan O'Laughlin touches on the subject of greatness in every one of his mentorship meetings. A topic with the gray area is the topic of if greatness is in everyone or is greatness in just the famous, wealthy, and popular people.
Just because people are famous does not make them great and not all great people are famous.
Being great does not just equate to if you're popular or famous, being great, especially in the business world requires a person to not make excuses for their actions and great people also in the work place, need to be innovative, focused leaders.
Does being famous make achieving greatness any easier?
In my eyes, greatness can be achieved by anyone, but greatness is different to everyone. Being ahead, socially, of someone does not give them the advantage of achieving greatness any easier than the average person with a dream. Greatness comes from disciplined leadership.
In the workplace, having a sense of urgency and accountability makes a great leader. Also, leading be example and showing others struggling even the leaders make mistakes, elicits a sense of greatness in any person. Being not only ethical, but efficient will get yourself ahead in the business world-especially is a dream of a worker is to be a leader.
With everything, hard work and dedication pay off so becoming great will not come over not, not even to the famous, wealthy people of society.
