SOME PEOPLE DON’T want to be in the spotlight. They like to contribute without promoting themselves. That’s how they choose to lead. They’re out-of-sight professionals. No trouble. They do their job.

– Anonymous benefactors want to be generous and helpful behind the scenes. They’re unknown (hiding, if you will)
for a good reason.

– A football coach is active on the sidelines, never out playing the game.

– The producer of a concert or a show is often not present.

– Think about silent auctions.

– Ghostwriters and pen names.

– Qualities of introverts.

– Undercover police officers and one-way mirrors.

– People out of sight in engine rooms of power plants, recording studios, nightwatchmen, setting up supermarkets in the early morning hours before the doors open to the public.

– People talk on Zoom calls without the video camera being on.

– A composer’s melody is a page of musical notes, and she is not physically present.

– Marni Nixon was the soprano singing voice for many featured movie actresses.

– When Shakespeare wrote, he was Hamlet and Ophelia, and he still is.

– Leonardo da Vinci is The Mona Lisa.

– Frank Lloyd Wright is Fallingwater.

– Robert Redford is his movies.

– Streisand is her recordings.

Look around you and think about people who are not present – seem to be hidden for a good reason – and give them life and the credit and gratitude they deserve by thinking about their work and each person’s whole self, even though they may choose not to promote themselves out front.
