Do you remember the last 5 Olympic gold medalists in any sport? Can you name the last 5 Nobel Peace Prize winners? Can you name your state’s Senators, your Representative, and the mayor of the town you live in?

Don’t worry – most people can’t.

Do you remember a teacher who had a big impact on you? Can you name 3 friends who would help you if you needed them? Who are 5 people you love to spend time with?

Bet you could answer those questions, couldn’t you?

The people closest to you in proximity have far more influence on you and your life than politicians, sports stars, and celebrities ever could. Yes, their accomplishments may be quite impressive – not as impressive as the ability to listen to you when your heart is broken, the willingness to help you when you need help, and the day-to-day inspiration that some people provide just by showing you, up close and personally, what you are capable of.

Stop overestimating the importance of famous people in your life, and start appreciating the importance of those closest to you more.
