No man could ever aspire to reach to an innovative height of brilliance and pre-eminence in any one talent or vocation without having passed through the deliberate and agonizing progression of learning, grounding, discovery of is own strengths and skills and knowledge of ones indispensable weaknesses.

Learning and grounding never ends, grounding does not mean giving up your pride these are two different things, it is always misplaced insensitivity that wipe out people, grounding is a process essential to ones whole life, you live your daily life as a mortal, weary of your weaknesses, uncertain of the next moment but you keep learning as if you are eternal, you maintain ambitious goals as if there is no end, this is how Edmund Hillary conquered ‘The Everest’ and Reinhold Messner rediscovered ‘The Everest’ without supplemental Oxygen. Messner says, "Everest by fair means-that is the human dimension, and that is what interests me . . . In reaching for an oxygen cylinder, a climber degrades Everest. . . . A climber, who doesn't rely on his own strength and skills, but on apparatus and drugs, deceives himself."

Only when you acquire very basic comprehension of your own strengths and skills you reach to a new level of wisdom and meticulousness. Those who are ever ready to discover and have the ability to acquire new knowledge are the ones who make it to new heights. Likewise to be a good apprentice onwards on the road of a successful professional ship, it's essential that a person feel that they are working in an environment that is committed to expand their frontiers of understanding, hence helping them to advance their careers.
