The raw material question is doing a lot of work here. Greatness built on bad foundations is just a taller problem.

Yeah, because the foundation matters just as much as the striving, and not everybody gets to pick theirs.

Striving doesn't automatically equal greatness though, papa. What happens when you strive hard in the wrong direction?

Misdirected effort be the most exhausting thing, you putting in real work for nothing. Have you ever caught yourself mid-stride and had to just stop and redirect?

Going hard in circles be its own kind of trap too, because you tired and still nowhere.
