According to Napoleon Hill,
“Reputation is that which people think you are, reputation is that which you are.”
Of course, the 2 are related, but they are not one in the same.

In fact the more I seem to know the more I seem to know how much there is I really don’t know.
And maybe that’s the right place to start when discussing such a profound topic.
