Turning the crank feels good.

You can get addicted to it.

You can also feel superior to people who aren't turning it as fast.

But if you're going to a place that isn't good, it doesn't matter how fast you get there.

Sometimes you get addicted to the feeling of turning the crank and optimize for that, even if turning the crank is destroying value.

The tactical certainty outshines the strategy uncertainty.

You don't stare into the abyss because you're too busy to.

It feels strong, but it's actually weak.
