When one achieves greatness at his or her craft, it’s difficult to walk away when the skills behind it begin to fade. Moreover, facing the hard truth that one’s peak may indeed be irretrievably in the past can be even tougher to accept, no matter how passionate one’s desire might be for it.

That kind of vulnerability should make everyone squirm, whether or not they’re directly impacted by such blindly sanctioned abuse.
