“It is only a lot of money if you make it over a long period of time.”
A guy I used to work with gave me this advice. anyone can rise up and get lucky but true greatness is sustained. If you truly are good you can maintain the flow of cash and energy.
Everyday I want to quit, get fired or be released. If I have a good day I want to say I proved my ability, drop the mic and walk away. But true greatness is staying in the moment and getting better. Achieving the results day in and day out.
