Love the achievement - learn how to better guard and enjoy it. But the world keeps changing, and any achievement is bound to lose its appeal. We, too, change, and are destined to become different from the one who has succeeded.

Love the skill - and it will grow, and gift us many new things and achievements to enjoy. Of course, since both we, and the world, keep changing, any skill would eventually lose its appeal as well. But working with skills is still better than with their product.

The closer to the source, the better.

Why humility is good? Cause pride is a shackle.
