One Need NOT Be A Candidate For Mount Rushmore

One Need NOT Be A Candidate For Mount Rushmore

Several days ago, the United States honored the late President Jimmy Carter with memorial services unparalleled given that President Carter was recognized for his achievements way beyond U.S. domestic affairs as for the past 40 years, his global initiatives impacted thousands of hapless people everywhere, from African countries reeling in poverty all the way to his mediations with autocratic North KoreaπŸ“˜πŸ“™πŸ“—

And in the eulogy from Andrew Young, one of the first 2 African-Americans elected to the U.S. Congress and a respected Former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations stated that One Need NOT Be A Candidate For Mount Rushmore.  And he was referring to the Late President Jimmy Carter WHO he said deserves to be at the foothills of Mount Rushmore.  BUT hey, we WON'T spend this thread today talking about it.  Instead, let us focus on each of ourselves, for us to realize that we DON'T need to be heroes and even approximate 'superman' because WE DON'T NEED A CAPE TO BE A HERO and that HELPING ANOTHER IS ENOUGHπŸ’šπŸ’›πŸ’œ
Truth of the matter, being a HERO DOESN'T mean performing grand gestures BUT rather being consistent and making an effort to be a better person, period.  That says it all, NO frills, NO bells, NO whistles.  Over in the NBA world, major ballclubs always lean to structure their teams with a Big 3 [of stars].  BUT WHAT does that guarantee?  NOTHING, NADA, KEINER.  EXCEPT those bloated contracts which explains WHY most of those major NBA ballclubs have either breached the first or second 'aprons' [apologies for this NBA jargon related to 'cap ceilings']πŸ’§πŸ’§πŸ’§
Through the years at the workplace, NOT once we ever touched discussions about someone at the SUPERMAN levels.  Instead, it's all about pooling team members together, combining their experiences becoming the key variable that proves shared capabilities are multiple times much better than having individual 'star-level' personalities in a team.  BUT setting aside workgroups, let's thing about it.  Even before we can envision groups collectively coming up together, it boils down to each member, investing in his capabilities and 'divesting' to share such capabilities to anyone WHO needs and deserves all forms and kinds of HELP we can possibly extendπŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯
Our takeaway:  NOT to impose things upon us BUT as we trek along in life, surely, we have reaped tons and tons of fruits [of course, thanks to our sheer determination to achieve those laurels] BUT think about it, WHAT better sense of fulfillment if we take that initiative to offload some of the 'blessings' we have had the past years over to the hapless ones?  NOT to call it PAYBACK TIME as it sounds imposing and harsh BUT just like the late US President Jimmy Carter, we may deserve to be at the FOOTHILLs [and NOT NECESSARILY AT MOUNT RUSHMORE]❗❗❗
