" Greatness is never found; it is gained. Greatness never comes easy; it’s always the outcome of great discipline and hard work. If you’re comfortable with where you are, if you’re complacent, you will never discover the greatness that lies within. Complacency is like pouring water on coals. It is so important not to misunderstand the words of Jesus. Remember, he never said, “Don’t be great.” In fact, his invitation was for only those who aspire to greatness: “Whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant.”49 You will never know the power of servanthood until you know the fire of greatness.
