What do driven people mean when they say: “This is Day 1 of my work that I have been working on, for long?”

I have been thinking on this for long. I think here’s what they mean:

That they will be humble the way they were at the start.
That they will remain curious.
That they will never rest on their laurels.
That they will be kinder.
That they will never let success get to their head.
That they will be better, but never get out of beginner’s mindset.

It takes everything to be a starter, when you start arriving.
