Reasons not to become famous
What can you achieve with fame that you cannot achieve with money alone? What is this need for wanting others to know that you exist at all?<p>Jobs that demand &quot;fame&quot; of some sorts will always take an emotional toll on personalities that are never comfortable with fame, limelight and podiums.<p>I have been an introvert my whole life but only recently realised this about myself at the tender age of 40! It was a cold slap for me to accept it. I have always imagined myself gregarious and outgoing and friendly - wanting to speak to strangers, breaking silence in a lift - but these have never really sat comfortably with me afterwards. I&#x27;ll be chewing and ruminating about the imagined mistimed comments or miscued lines for ages. I have bruised myself emotionally believing that I needed to be an extrovert to be successful when in fact I was only demanding too much of myself. Fame, and outrageous fame will likely kill me too.
