I don’t chase moonshots recklessly — I operate from a space of grounded ambition.

That means:
- Protecting time and family first
- Starting with what I already have (skills, reputation, 25k runway)
- Building lean: one page, one project, one offer at a time

I don’t bluff. I don’t gamble. But I *do* test, iterate, and evolve. And that’s more sustainable than the startup mythos would suggest.
