Being a bit famous now gives me the oppurtunity to help people who really need it, especially children.
Above all, the chief attribute that describes Messi both as a player and a person is his humility. The man has stayed grounded even after achieving the insane amount of fame and money. The above quote shows is an example of his generosity towards the needy. Great people always take responsibility for others. They know the greater purpose is to give and heal.
The highest accolade is not money, but recognition from fellow peers. His greatness as a player is acknowledged by his teammates and opponents all alike. And yet, Messi has seldom been arrogant towards people. Watch this video proving his eminence.
That is how he teaches us to be humble even after being a successful person in all aspects of life. Leo Messi, you beautiful soul. Take a bow.
