‘A taste sensation’. Not my words, my adoring diners who loved every morsel.  

Now the truth.  

 
In reality, I was the chief heater-upperer. 

All the hard work had been done by Mrs Hepp.  

She designed the menu, bought the food, marinated, flavoured, prepped and portioned everything.

All I had to do was evenly cook it. 

And I got all the credit. 

 
It happens all the time.  

There can be over 5,000 people involved in making a movie. Yet two people are ‘the stars’.  

It took 15,000 men (and goodness knows how many women and children) to build Hadrian’s wall. I bet old Hadrian didn’t lift a trowel. 

And here’s the big one...

It’s estimated that 400,000 people worked on the Apollo missions. Yet when it comes to moonwalks, after Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin you’d be hard-pressed to think of the others*. 

 
I have a challenge for you.

Thank someone who helps you to be your best.

I’d like to know and bet they would too.
