Achieving true greatness is not a matter of innate genius or luck, but the result of discovering your life's calling and enduring a rigorous process of learning and practice.
You must discover your unique calling by reconnecting with the primal inclinations and passions of your childhood.
The apprenticeship phase requires you to value learning over money while you humbly observe your environment and acquire fundamental skills.
Finding a mentor accelerates your learning process by allowing you to absorb their years of accumulated wisdom and receive realistic feedback.
