Episode #288
Treat career and work change like a design problem: run small, low-risk prototypes and view failures as useful data.
Build sustainable change with tiny steps—set the bar low, clear it repeatedly, and grow self-efficacy instead of chasing all-or-nothing goals.
Aim for coherence between who you are and what you do; prioritize meaning over more money and use the cycle: get curious, talk to people, try stuff, tell your story.
We build our way forward because you can't analyze it because there's no data.
Set the bar low and clear it.
