Excellence brings favour; it brings promotion. When you stand out, people will look for you. Daniel did not beg for recognition. The Bible says when the king was troubled, and there was no one that had the solution to his problem, the queen remembered Daniel and made mention of him to the king.
Stand Out
Excellence is not an accident; it is something you consciously and conscientiously work at. That is why there are always only a few people in every place who are obviously more prominent than others.
