Loved this essay Justin. It reminded me of some of Nick Asbury's writing on purpose in advertising.

Wow, this such an improved version and I see all your points connecting. Very much enjoyed this and reminds me of Chris Wong's 3 part series starting with https://www.unknown-unknowns.xyz/p/unknown-unknowns-95-finding-purpose

"Optionality has become a cruel master." - very well said. We see it in everything, in careers, relationships, shopping, entertainment, etc.

Excellent career advice - and what a playful closing line!
