A (wo)man’s fame & fortune are not measured in the quantity of material and monetary possession nor in his/her numerous appearances in the media spotlight. They are measured by the quality of the message, lasting impression and effect (positive or negative) (s)he has left on the number of people whom have been introduced into their lives.
I am not famous…nor do I ever plan to be. I know my purpose in life is to inspire other people and the global network reach of people that remember me, whom I have inspired for whatever reason, speaks louder than any movie contract, album sales or monetary value can measure.
Whether it’s ONE person or ONE MILLION…
What’s your message – what will your legacy be?
