Most likely, you will not be able to fulfill or be the model you have designed for yourself. However, you can, in accordance with how much you invest in lucidity, self-knowledge, culture and discipline, perform externally and become internally the best within your reach.
It is your standard of excellence that you should pursue, not your expectations or that of others.
