The drive to mastery is essential to the fulfillment of mastery, and it is those with an intense drive that become masters in their respective fields. Mastery then can be seen as one way to distribute all of the overflowing energy and intensity that boils over within one who has an extremely active drive.
When one has a fire under oneself, one has to constantly be moving, so as to ventilate the effects of that fire, the constant movement of energy that radiates from a point of extreme energy concentration.
All of that extra energy can be safely put towards mastery, which hopefully can absorb much of it, lest one become roasted.
