Signs you’re on the path of greatness…

3 min readSep 9, 2025

You’ve committed to a mission, project or cause with no Plan B. Failure is not an option.

Your mission is one that would be deemed ‘absurd’ or ‘unreasonable’ by even those closest to you. And you smile to yourself because this is precisely why you chose it.

Your decision to take up such a challenge — one that requires continual re-commitment — has you humming with energy. It also reinforces the profound sense that you are totally alone.

You go through the day in a near surreal daze, continually shaking off thoughts of doubt that try to sabotage and trick you into submission. But yet you hold fast.

You find your immunity to such distraction becoming stronger with every decision to remain on path.

It’s no longer about the ‘goal,’ but about what kind of person you are embodying today — right now — as an expression of this fearless commitment.

There is a transcendent, mystical and warrior-like quality to the person you’ve chosen to become.

You’re so deep in this that you even brush your teeth with a newly acquired sense of pride.

You find yourself walking a little taller. You take up more space where you sit. Where you once avoided another’s gaze — you now hold it without a flinch.
