Influencing people asks the question, \u2018Are the people I am interacting with better people than they were when before we met?\u2019 If not, then my character is lacking, meaning that how I act when no one is watching is not the same when they are watching. If both influence and character are lacking, then I cannot excel. I value the well-being of others before myself, and if others are struggling due to my actions, then I cannot put my best foot forward. With this being said, influencing the lives of others, no matter how small may be, when participating in philanthropy, leading team members to success at work, or even being a role-model at school, is what inspires me the most to achieve excellence.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-4 fusion-flex-container
