If you don’t have the opportunity to “do great things”, focus on consistently achieving small wins. These small things in fact do not need to be done in a great way, but a good way, repeatably. In fact, I would advise not to focus on perfection, as it is often the enemy of the successful.

I’ve come to learn that it’s not about overnight successes or flashes of excellence, but periods of repeatable habits. Perhaps “great’, is just “good”, but repeatable.
