The read
How this worldview moves.
You move the world by moving the things in it. You're optimistic, capable, and unembarrassed about wanting to win — but the version of winning you mean is one where the work was real and the outcomes are durable.
Your bias toward action can outpace the reflection that would tell you whether you're winning the right game.
