No. 1—“In a fear-based, failure-averse culture, people will consciously or unconsciously avoid risk. They will seek to repeat something safe that has been good enough in the past. Their work will be derivative, not innovative. But if you can force a positive understanding of failure, the opposite will happen.” -Ed Catmull
This is the best description of why fear as a tactic is unsustainable. It might work, but not forever.
No. 2—“If you wish to make progress, you must be content in external matters to seem a fool and a simpleton.” -Epictetus
You have over almost everyone if you are willing to look foolish.
No. 3—Mastery requires the patience and humility to practice and learn, along with the discipline to do that for a very long time, regardless of what the world thinks. Life is really one long apprenticeship.
