What Legacy Is Made Of

Legacy is not something you engineer at the end. It is something you leave in the shape of your repeated choices — the standard you refused to lower, the kindness you kept when it cost you, the habit you protected when no one was watching.

Character compounds more quietly than capital, and often further. You do not get to control what survives you. You only get to control what you are faithful to.

Faithfulness, done long enough, becomes architecture.
