What does it mean to be great?

Does it mean having so much power you can do whatever you want, however you want and whenever you want?

Does it mean being so talented you are sought after by those that can truly afford your presence?

Does it mean being so popular your name is on the lips of every soul that has heard of you?

What does it mean exactly? I ask because I have heard many people referred to as great and usually at the greatest of all times. It leads me to ask these questions repeatedly to myself.

I ask also because; I too want to be great.

Being great is being recognized. To tell you the truth your question is kind of weird. Can't exactly understand what are you asking for what reason?
There are many great poets, sportsman or politicians and there many opposites of great.
