Its going to be another night of me ranting on my blog, but lately I've just been really frustrated by people that seem to have forgotten what it was like to be the little guy. Just because you've gone places in life doesn't mean you should change who you are or the way you treat people. I have no problem with a person being proud of their accomplishment, but don't forget where you started. I feel like lately I have been seeing people that have become successful start to act like somehow they are better than everyone else, or act like they got there without any help from anyone. I'm not discounting peoples hard work, but I don't know anyone that got there all by themselves. Everyone has had influence in their life, whether its from their parents or their heroes or someone else they looked up to. Everyone has had to learn from someone else to get to where they are. We all go through struggles, but the vast majority of the time there are people to help us along the way.
I'm writing this as a reminder don't let success change the way you are. Don't forget all the people that helped you along the way. Stay humble, because you may not always be on top. Success can come and go, but your character is a legacy that will follow you even after you're dead.
