Inspiration

How can you inspire people if you haven't done anything really truly great? That's like asking someone why they became a philanthropist after becoming a millionaire. At that point you have the wealth to give. What's really inspiring though, is when you don't have much to give but you give regardless. I'm a totally selfish person BTW. Maybe that's why I'm not getting anywhere in life.... Eh maybe that's not true either. Think about how many selfish jerks make it in life. I mean, it doesn't mean they're actually happy, but they are enviable. I want to be a great person, where do I sign up?
