Now, are you willing to become a personal hero or are you looking to become a hero in general?

The work is very different for each, you know and it's rather difficult to be both at the same time. So.. your choices are to receive the acclaim and gratitude from one individual whom you impress mightily with your heroic deeds, which can usually yield instant gratification -or- take the longer, harder road to acheive realms-wide acclaim and recognition which will take you up against competition and require you to travel a lot to make sure everyone knows who you are, but in the end will yield long lasting applause and the lauding of your efforts.

Oh, now that was fun to write!
