Mastery Arch-types- The Obsessive, and The Hack

[John Paul]

I'm hoping to gain a better understanding of"the obsessive" and "the hack" from the book Mastery and also mentioned in the LP course.

Is it accurate to say that the obsessive and the hack are two sides of the same coin as in the hack being overly-satisfied  with little progress at some point and then slowing down learning/pressure and the obsessive being not satisfied with any apparent results during a plateau so continually applying more pressure? So we are aiming for a middle ground, like a consistent level of pressure through a plateau and growth spurt? 

I'm sorry if this isn't a very clear question. Just confirming I understand these traps so that I can sleep easy lol

And what I'm thinking is these two archetypes would be Clarity, the second enemy of Learning from Don Juan "and he'll rush when he should be patient and he'll be patient when he should rush"....I kind of have a thought form around the enemies of knowledge from Don Juan so if this is what is meant that might help me with some magical thinking issues around that idea from that book lol I'm always like what the fuck is clarity and what the fuck is true power its always bugged me.

@John Paul

Hacker and obsessive are not 2 side of the coin.

 

The best way is to follow the route of master.ie move according to your speed and ability ,taking the middle ground ,do not push yourself a lot etc
