The other night, I asked my eight-year-old son which U.S. soccer player he wants to be. The answer wasn’t surprising: Landon Donovan.
It got me thinking.
Secretly, we all want to be Landon Donovan. Whether in our personal or professional lives, we want credit for our hard work and the respect of our co-workers, friends and family.
Here’s the problem: We can’t all be the star. Most of us have to play supporting roles on the field. Some of us are the assistant coach, and someone needs to be the water boy.
