What is mastery, you may ask? According to http://ardictionary.com, mastery is victory; triumph; preeminence; or great skillfulness and knowledge of some subject or activity. In the last few years in this journey called life, I have realized how important mastery is through my leadership reading and my experiences. The bigger question is..
how do we attain mastery? Obviously, it will not be easy, otherwise everyone would have attained it. Also, it is one of those things that comes at a price…. success (and mastery) does not go on sale, there is no easy road… no quick scheme…. find the price and pay it. It is simple equation, but not easy. There is also a parallel thinking called ‘dream – struggle – victory’ which is the paradigm built on nature’s way: the creation of a new life or a beautiful flourishing garden. In order to attain victory after the conception of the dream, one ABSOLUTELY MUST go through the struggle. Short-cuts will not create a true long lasting victory.
