Every Summit Selects a Sacrifice
Count ambition's hidden costs before the route makes the choice for you.

No ambition is free. It spends attention, time, reputation, comfort, and portions of the body. The question is whether the sacrifice was chosen consciously or extracted quietly.
A worthy summit does not excuse every method of reaching it. Count the hidden costs while you can still change the route.
If the victory arrives but the person who wanted it has vanished, who exactly has won?
