To Be Great -- Prompt 11

Every single one of us has the potential for greatness but how do they gain greatness? I think you can't define someone as great by their outer appearances. Greatness is more about one's characters and actions towards others. It does not come with all those riches and fames. Money does not make you acheive greatness. I think that you gain greatness by doing your best, not by being the best. When you do your best, you can go through every obstacles that come in your way. It is true that you can't be great if you only think about yourself and be stuck up, you have to think about others and serve them in a humble manner. Those people who serves others without wanting fame are people who I call as having greatness.

This is the main cause of why I don't want to join a band again in my life!
