This is truly an apt description of personal vulnerability and failing through temptation. For, indeed, feeling one has reached the pinnacle creates a feeling of superiority in some, and that appeal to power it represents may trigger them to plan and act on such self‑assurance, and cause them to take advantage of their presumed superiority in seeking power over others to presume they have privileges others do not and, at a minimum, to rest on their laurels. The false impression one has attained power through having faulty clarity that is really the inability to see further, that more is achievable and that one is still on a path that is never-ending, is truly the dilemma of being in a state of ignorance while claiming victory and can only lead to false rewards in settling for less, or, more likely, a comeuppance that will cause a person's downfall. But here again, the resource promoted is personal willpower and not seeing this as a healing need that may require outside help, especially from the divine realm. This is a lost opportunity and, in effect, a false reassurance, much like the problem being described, one is being given greater clarity as an enemy to attainment without gaining true clarity about the most powerful and effective means to overcome the pitfall of clarity itself.
