Directionality

Everyone obsesses over speed, output, and frameworks. Roadmaps, sprints, OKRs, KPIs. Execution, execution, execution. I’m no exception: if I’m not moving, I start stressing. But moving for the sake of moving doesn’t create progress. Speed alone isn’t leverage... it can cause drift, or worse… a
