If you want to achieve something extraordinary, you have to recognize that rarely is that achieved alone. No good story about achieving something remarkable is just one person trudging with their own thoughts. It is lots of often unexpected roles around you. Some of them are always with you, and some of them appear and disappear in different contexts.
Who are you building around you? Who’s your tribe that’s going to help you do something remarkable? Creating that compelling vision is one element of it, but then you need to build a group to go with you. Who’s going to help you on your quest in those moments when you doubt? In those moments when you’re deciding it’s too much hard work, who are those people who will support you?
Build that group of people. They don’t detract from your success in the end. You don’t need to deny that they ever existed because only a fool believes that success achieved alone is real. I think that’s a really key element of success. I’ve had that my whole life. My mother, while she was alive, and even now as a guiding force for me. My sisters, two very different people, but with skills and perspectives that have often slapped me when I’m being morose and cynical, as they do lift me. Who are these people who are going to see that vision of yours and hold you to it?
