Entire career in a nutshell" hits hard. I used to believe it was all about big wins and promotions. Then I saw how much time I spent fixing small mistakes or waiting on other people. Changed my whole view on what work actually is.

My old boss used to say 80% of the job was just keeping the train on the tracks. Took me years to see he was right.
