If you haven’t already, try reading Mastery by George Leonard. Some of his examples / narrative choices are dated but if you can look past that it’s got great insights. It’s a piece of the puzzle but can provide some orientation.

Today, it's not enough to be good at something. You need to be the best at what you do.

In this article, Ephraim writes on why you should aim for MASTERY, the one thing that really sets you apart.

Lessons shared in this article were inspired by the book Mastery written by Robert Greene.

jonathan Livinsgton Seagull and Illusions Both by Richard Bach were very influential in my late twenties.
In mY thirties I was glad I found Mastery by George Leonard. All three of them less than 100 pages to close to 100 pages.
