"Character may be manifested in the great moments, but it is made in the small ones" Phillips Brooks US Episcopal Bishop 1835-1893.
Courageous moments, inspirational speeches, daring acts or amazing feats all have their very important place in being a great leader, fantastic parent or world's best at something but it's in the small, daily, unnoticed moments that success is really forged. Out of the glare of public gaze these moments could simply pass by if it wasn't for the discipline that makes great people great. So if you truly want to excel at something hold yourself accountable through your daily rituals, acts and role-modeling not because someone is there to act as witness but because it's what makes you worthy of that prize.
