Seasonal greetings time again…
Chamberlain: Two brothers I was at school with, Richard and John LeRoy sent greetings.
Chamberlain: For some reason they wanted to reconnect. They were both successful in their different ways. John stayed close to home, founded a business, chaired a couple of charities and finished his career as director on half a dozen companies.
Tania: And Richard?
Chamberlain: Richard left school and departed the country, studied in the US, returned to become a professor. Started a company. Collected a string of letters after his name: Ph.D., FRS and so on.
Tania: Success can be found both near and far?
Chamberlain: Exactly. Don’t measure yourself against what others achieve. Focus on what you do well.

Voice-over
Know yourself and polish your potentials, burnish the abilities. Not all Richards were good and Johns were weak. Sometimes they were equal but had different strengths and weaknesses. As were the brothers King Richard (1157-1199) and King John (1166-1216).
