W HY DO SOME careers stall while others flourish?

Let me use an example which contrasts a politician (often successful and rarely significant) with a statesman (usually both)…it has been said that a politician is concerned with winning the election and a statesman is concerned about future generations. I really do think that people mix the two up on a very regular basis.
