Max:
Greatness can only come about from immense sacrifices..

I say this because, I think of all the amazing lives lived and what they have all gone through in the process of living a great life. “Greatness” is a big burden to carry. I believe we’re all equipped for greatness but not all of us are willing to embrace the sacrifices or endure the burdens that come with it. Without the great ones stepping up to the plate risking everything secure in their life, in order to effect change, we all stand still..

Dao:
But do you think the great ones ever felt that burden? Or did they do what they felt like they needed to do.

Max:
They must have felt that burden because there had to be sacrifices, there is no burden without sacrifice. They definitely did what they needed to do regardless of criticism, insecurities, fear, opposition and even self doubt. The feeling of burden is a result of sacrificing things that brings comfort to ones life. They pushed past all these hurdles in order to make those necessary sacrifices that we know bring about all sorts of burden. I feel these steps are crucial and possibly mandatory steps to greatness. Every time I think about it, I have this feeling of wanting to take my hat off to those that have endured to bring about change. I just wish at the end of the day, we are able to feel like we’ve lived our life to its greatest potential. It’s less about being great cause the greatness part the world will judge.. But one thing is for certain you can’t deny a life greatly lived.
