Summary

This quote suggests that a truly effective person is not just an assemblage of individual qualities or abilities, but rather someone whose overall impact and influence exceed the mere combination of their individual traits. It implies that the synergistic effect of different aspects of their character, skills, and knowledge make them successful and impactful. In other words, an effective human is able to leverage their diverse strengths and integrate them in a way that is greater and more powerful than each individual part on its own.
