Original Advice
“You are allowed to work for meaning, not mileage - Choose roles and timelines that honor curiosity, freedom, and impact. Take real breaks without defending them. You don’t owe anyone burnout to prove ambition—release the guilt.”
Measure Impact, Not Hours
Your endless sprint isn’t devotion; it’s fear in a blazer. You clock miles to avoid choosing meaning. The calendar is full; your spirit is empty. You answer emails like prayers, then wonder why the altar stays cold. No promotion rescues a life spent proving. Stop worshiping hours. Choose a target worth the arrow, then rest without apology.
You’re built for horizons, not hamster wheels. Quantity dulls your aim; quality sharpens it. Curiosity is your engine; constraint is your fuel only when chosen. Projects that expand you pay back more than overtime ever will. Deadlines are tools, not shackles. Protect the wild space where ideas land. Work in arcs, not drips. Deliver, then disappear. Return with something that moves the needle.
Cosmic Context
Jupiter expands what you feed. Aim the bow at meaning and it multiplies; aim at mileage and only fatigue grows.
