Your work is the measure of your worth. The speaker shares how working with Meryl Streep forced him to raise his standards, and argues that collaborating with excellent people naturally elevates your performance in ways mediocre peers never can.
You know, that's all you have at the end of the day is your work and your integrity at all costs. I don't care if it's 4 scenes in a movie, and I don't care what it is that you have to infuse it with as much excellence as you can. So when, absolutely, when I, you know, was able to work with Meryl Streep, it was a dream come true, and I knew that I had to step up my game. You know, you always get better when you work with people who are excellent. You almost never get better when you work with people who are not excellent.
