In this one I dive into a ramble on throughput and how ideas are great, but HOW do you plan on putting them into play and how that might change over time. Goals are great, but just having a clear direction might be more important than a SUPER specific end state - as that end state is more of a horizon that you might never reach - but keep pushing toward.
