I reckon greatness is a relative thing in that we all have to define it for ourselves. If we meet up with our criteria for greatness - we are all great! Yay!!
In that sense, every single person on earth (and any other creatures with sentient thought) can be great.

You can only be 'great' compared to those around you.

With respect, I don't think greatness is a comparison thing. That just makes it "keeping up with the Jones's, PD style"!
By using my definition of Greatness, we are all helping ourselves, which helps everyone around us, by raising the level of consciousness generally and acting as a great example.

You must actively help other people in this world.

We cannot help others unless it's by helping ourselves become great. Any "shortfall" we see in others indicates a lack within ourselves. By accepting others "faults" and thereby learning what we are resisting within ourselves, we better accept ourselves, leading to more greatness, and the positive spiral continues.
Joy to you
