If you are good at what you do, and passionate about doing it (and by doing it, I meant doing your best at it) then people will naturally want to take it from you. This is a competitive world, divided into hungry sub cultures and industries. There is always somebody better than you at what you do. But are they as dedicated, motivated and inspired as you? If so, then pass the freaken torch already. Dont let your presence hinder anothers potential because you cant let go of what you are doing. Also, Im pretty sure that you can only solidify your role anywhere through passion, commitment, hard work and love. I just heard a musician say Why would you want to invest into helping that musician? Why would you stuff them under your wing like that? The reply was profound. Because I see them doing something better than me. That is what defines a true professional. And that carries over to ALL industries and passions.
