Redefining Greatness

The concept of greatness is often misunderstood and influenced by societal standards that can distort personal aspirations. Many individuals equate greatness with wealth, fame, or the pinnacle achievements of others, leading to unrealistic comparisons. This pervasive narrative, fueled by constant exposure to social media highlights, pressures many to conform to a predefined notion of success. Instead of solely seeking external validation, it is crucial to explore what personal greatness truly means and how it aligns with individual values and desires.
