The cost of keeping every option available is never committing deeply to one.

Keeping options open feels like freedom and functions as a ceiling. Depth requires committing past the point where you could easily change course, and anything you refuse to close off keeps you at the shallow end of everything. The optionality has a price and it is charged in the form of never getting good at anything.

Pick one area and close some doors deliberately. Commit for a defined period without keeping an exit warm. What becomes possible at depth is not visible from the surface.
