Fans or friends?

Larry Janesky: Think Daily

When you are highly successful, you create a gap between you and others.  They think you are better, smarter and bigger than you really are; they have this exaggerated view about people who are successful.

If you want fans, create this gap.  But if you want friends, make the gap go away by telling them all the stupid and embarrassing things you have done.  Their thoughts of your greatness will go away, as they see you are in reality, just like them.

Well – I’ll rememember that for when I’m highly successful! So far so good!

I can’t seem to see you as a normal guy. Still a fan.
But this Think Daily is so true. I was always been intimidated by rich people. Now I understand they want and need friends too.
