You can’t tell where people will land from where they begin. With the
right opportunity and motivation to learn, anyone can build the skills to
achieve greater things. Potential is not a matter of where you start, but of
how far you travel. We need to focus less on starting points and more on
distance traveled.

Aspiration is the person you hope to become. The question is not
how much money you earn, how many fancy titles you land, or how many
awards you accumulate. Those status symbols are poor proxies for
progress. What counts is not how hard you work but how much you grow.
And growth requires much more than a mindset—it begins with a set of
skills that we normally overlook.
