“The Loneliness of Mastery”

No one tells you that mastery is lonely. People love your potential, not your process. They celebrate the results, not the isolation that built them. 

But solitude is the forge. While others chase comfort, I chase precision. While they rest, I refine. Every hour spent alone is another layer of steel laid over the soul. 

The higher you climb, the thinner the air- not everyone can breathe where you’re going.
