I am with you, I think "self-made" is such an ego-centric term. But if I am being a contrarian here, maybe individuals who don't feel supported in any way or any sense of community might feel another type of way...unsure.
You see it when a young man is drafted to the NFL or NBA. They are always surrounded by their supporters and they will the first to tell you who stood by them all the way: family, friends, coaches, mentors, etc.
It is something we should never forget and owe any success we have to those who have came before us and supported us.
Everything worth doing requires community and connection. Stay Uncommon! Stay Kind!
