Don't be afraid

Don't be afraid to learn a lot or understand more than you think you should, for fear of becoming alone, for even as you attain mastery or supreme knowledge, you will always be presented with a new paradox, new questions to ponder, new problems to solve, and will encounter individuals who have been there before.

Don't be afraid to excel. Don't be afraid to have really good ideas that you "know" in your gut will work. Just find a champion. If you can't find a champion, use the world.
