I have an idea of where this is going.
I don't think a great person sets out to be great, but just sort of falls into it.
A great person knows better than to vainly think about how they want to be remembered, because they're not foolish enough to paint themselves into a corner, and no one wants to ruin really hot shoes.
A great person may not remember everyone's name, but remembers endearing nicknames, and often which one goes to what person.
A great person always keeps a secret or two.
A great person does not need their posse with them at all times. They know who's earned the title of friend the hard way.
A great person is someone who is still changing and growing.
A great person knows how to extend themselves without being a doormat.
A great person works beyond fear and regret, rather than not experiencing it.
