FAME The Ultimate Addiction

from Failing Up · host Timothy Mahar

In this episode I reflect on how our culture has become addicted to fame.  Fame the fools errand now pursued for the sake of being famous as opposed to the excellence in a chosen endeavor.   And like any addiction once experienced the user can't give it up.  Reality television, social media, people becoming famous for stupid acts.  There was a time when fame was a bi-product of excellence and passion, not a goal. timothymahar.org
