im just wondering if this also doesn't look at the other side, where people choose the path of mastery but don't reach the pinnacle? what happens to them?

My personal perspective on this is more about achieving human potential and setting yourself on the path to mastery rather than the actually becoming the absolute best. Some will seek mastery for mastery's sake: See the Alpinist Netflix documentary. The path to mastery can change lives even without the person becoming the absolute best or even being as hardcore as someone like myself. We are seeing this live at our company. Let's take the case of someone in India who is young and inexperienced but sets themselves up on the path to mastery. They spend time and dedication to their craft investing in themselves. Can someone like this even in 1 year or less make many, many multiples on their compensation and get offered jobs overseas? Yes, it's already happened. I also have no doubt we will soon see people from my company that in 1-2 years are offered more than 10-15X what they currently make. Now, that's not to say that compensation should be the ultimate, desired outcome but I'm suggesting that the market recognizes the value of the path to mastery. What happens to them? They increase their personal value by many multiples. They are able to achieve more of their human potential.
