“…if you can build a good name, eventually that name will be its own currency.” – William Burroughs (to Patti Smith)
It’s not about the school you attended, or your resume, or where you live. It’s not about the car you drive or the last event you went to. It’s about you, the you people see, the one they in some way connect and interact with.
People eventually break through the force field, the shield surrounding your life. They get to see, or experience, the real you. So keep your name clean. Connect it with good work. Resist compromise.
Let who you are become your currency. And let the riches flow.
