A Rage To Master

Prodigies have two distinct qualities according to the research..

  1. A rage to master a certain domain- the pursuit of mastery consumes them.

  2. An ability to learn quickly in the domain.

Some people have the rage but not the ability to learn quickly, and others can learn but not the rage.

When someone has these two things come together- you get Picasso, Mozart, MJ, Einstein, Plato, Marcus Aurelius… someone who completely changes their field.
