"Pour être grand soyez entier n'excluez rien n'exagérez rien qui ne soit pas vous. Soyez entier en tout. Mettez tout ce que vous êtes dans la plus petite chose que vous faites."
— Fernando Pessoa

Simplified Meaning:
To achieve true greatness, it is important to be complete and genuine in everything you do. Think of yourself as a puzzle; all pieces must be there to see the full picture. If you leave anything out or pretend to be something you're not, the puzzle will be incomplete or misleading. For example, imagine you're baking a cake. If you skip an ingredient or add too much of one, the cake won't turn out right. Similarly, in your own life, embrace all parts of yourself and put your best effort into even the smallest tasks. This way, every action reflects your true self and builds upon your authenticity. By being fully present and committed in each moment, you create a life that is true to who you are.
