Meaning
This reads as a claim that greatness is not mysterious, but built from small habits, discipline, and attention to detail. It can be taken to mean the speaker has learned this by observing successful people closely, and now wants to pass that practical lesson on. It lands in a moment when someone is looking for a usable definition of leadership, not a glamorous one.
