The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday.  These people are not second rate achievers, they are the best in their fields.  But the applause dies, awards tarnish, achievements forgotten and accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.

Now here's another quiz:

1. List a few teachers who aided your journey.
2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time.
3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile.
4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and special.
5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.
6. Bane a half dozen heroes whose stories have inspired you.
