    AbstractEmbracing greatness, for surgeons as well as for other professionals, brings about a positive state of mind that permits us and others to better appreciate the performance of our working activities and our lives. Celebrating greatness is unique and should not be overlooked at any time in our professional development. The surgeon gains from this attitude of celebrating greatness because he/she applies it to the betterment of both patient care and physician improvement. Surgeons advance their art and techniques by believing in themselves, by better defining their qualities, and, of course, by embracing greatness. Believing in their possibilities of success, promoting their confidence, and celebrating greatness should be important qualities to seek in the life and career of the modern surgical specialist. The surgeon as an individual, as a professional, and as a human being would enormously progress in life and in working endeavors when embracing greatness thoughout personal and professional careers.
