Some people are called to be a good sailor. Some people have a calling to be a good tiller of the land. Some people are called to be a good friend. You have to be the best at whatever you are called at. Whatever you do. You ought to be the best at it - highly skilled. It's about confidence, not arrogance. You have to know that you're the best whether anybody else tells you or not. And that you'll be around, in one way or another, longer than anybody else. Somewhere inside of you, you have to believe that.
