I used to think that success was not having to introduce yourself. I thought it was having others introduce you or everyone already knowing who you were. Having others seek you out and introduce themselves as if you were a celebrity.
Now I realise that success is probably not having to introduce yourself but doing it anyway. Assuming nothing. Not being led by ego. Being indifferent to praise, acknowledgment or fame.
Quiet confidence. Humility. Nothing to prove.
