There's a trick to this.

This only works for those who want to accept it. Some may find freedom in being elites, not being restrained by motivation.

But others may enjoy the thrill of the hunt. So being separated from the pain and thrill of the work is a big loss to them.

That's a really interesting point.

But if you're going to do something big, that takes quite some time, you're going to have to be the former, not the later.

Some things are not good for the adrenaline seekers.
