Law Professor Alan Palmiter at Wake University School of Law offered what he saw as the common theme in “great” and “successful people.”  The Professor explained that over the course of his life, he has come across and interacted with a great variety of leaders and intellectuals.  The Professor said that these individuals came from various industries and professions and left  varying degrees of impressions on him.  He offered what he believed to be the common theme in the “great” and “successful” people in the world:  The ability to focus.  That includes, perhaps, the ability to focus completely during a 3-hour evening law class by refraining to use the internet.  I guess not all of us can be great.
