The Road to Mastery 

The road to mastery lies through
The deep pit of uncertainty,
Ignoble slavery of menial tasks,
10,000 hours of prison, honing your skills.

And then… you are a master of your craft,
Basking in the glory of “This is easy”, 
Telling the young ones, “Don’t you lose heart…” 

But first: pit, slavery, prison…
