It seems only fearless achieve greatness. Everyone else is always looking forward to being great. Stopped only by the fear of failure or something unknown! Quest for greatness is never ending. But
You achieve greatness
when you are oblivious of the dignity
of those above you,
and make those below you
oblivious of yours.
When you are neither haughty with the humble
nor humble with the haughty!
Being fearless and purely duty-bound behavior will make anyone great, like our guard out here:
A recruit was assigned to guard the entrance to the army camp and was given instructions to let no car pass if it did not have a special pennant.
He had an occasion to stop a car bearing a General who promptly told his driver to ignore the sentry and drive on. Whereupon the recruit stepped forward, rifle at the ready, and calmly said, "Pardon me, sir, but I’m new to this. Whom do I shoot? You, sir, or the driver?
It is time to be a sentry of self set principles of life to be truly passionate = self imposed discipline to achieve something!
Good to stop the quest and start the journey!
