Winkler's career offers an interesting contrast.
He became internationally famous through Fonzie, but he didn't remain trapped in the personality of that character.
He continued learning.
He continued working.
He tried new things.
He embraced humor.
He developed a career beyond the role that first made him famous.

Careers change.
Audiences change.
Trends change.
The people who survive for decades are often those who understand that success is temporary and that there is always more to learn.

Success can test friendships.
Public attention can distort relationships.
And a person who suddenly becomes extremely successful has to work hard to remain connected to the people who knew them before the spotlight arrived.
