Just that you can do it and not be afraid of it. Humility is very important.

They are not self-assertive nor self-seeking, to be sure, but rather they are unselfish and uncomplaining, genuinely interested in the welfare of others, creating opportunities to be of service to them, submissive in the face of injuries and insults, silent in the accidents and adversities of life, and bearing with equanimity the infamies and injustices heaped upon them.

So the wise in Wall Street are nearly always silent. The foolish thus have the field to themselves. None rebukes them.
