Is obsession the path to greatness?

What is your obsession in something that makes you want to be better? How do we become obsessed with a domain or particular artform?

My obsession is simply with the concept of skill mastery itself.

Whatever skill I learn, I want to achieve mastery at it, so I can do it going forward even in my sleep.

So then I don't have to discriminate upon what the individual domains, skill, or art form is. Whatever I happen to pick up, or gets assigned to me at work, I'll take it and run with it, and keep learning and working at it, until I achieve strong skills in that area. 😊

What is your threshold for achieving mastery? How long does it take for you to achieve mastery?

I have not found anything to be obsessed about. My laziness is so strong and so deep I think it is a very strong personality trait that can never be gotten rid off.

I fear I'm sleepwalking through life not knowing what is about to hit me. Infact, I am sleepwalking through life. And when the hammer comes down on me, I won't be able to get back up.

There is nothing that I'm dreaming incessantly about.
