- Some survive illness through community, others through solitude
- In solitude, you build an inner system, you learn to sit with pain until it bends
- This forges a thick mental skin: failure doesn’t break you, endurance becomes default
- The true edge: to enter the arena again and again until victory
- Strength is not being spared suffering, but never stopping despite it
