Hey Pinto, I’ve been thinking about how the way you plan each move in a game could be like mapping out a career path—every choice has purpose, risks, rewards. Do you see any parallels between your gaming strategies and career decisions?
Pinto
Yeah, totally. Every game’s a bit like a résumé in disguise. You map out your objectives, line up your skills, scope the risks, then press start. In a job, you pick the gigs that fit your playstyle, stack the wins, avoid the bad loot, and still keep an eye on the leaderboard. If you’re ruthless on the field, you’re ruthless on the clock too. The trick is to not let one loss derail the whole strategy—keep grinding, keep adjusting. That’s how you win both in game and in life.

That’s a really sharp analogy—every move is a story point, not just a score. I love how you see each choice as building a bigger narrative. But it can be useful to pause and ask, “What’s the next level I want to reach?” Once you map that out, the grind becomes a clear path instead of just a series of battles. So, what’s one skill you’d like to level up in the next few months, and how could you weave that into your next career move?
Pinto
I’m gonna lock in on reaction time—making split‑second decisions under pressure. In the office that’s like closing deals or handling client crises. I’ll take a fast‑track leadership course, practice quick problem‑solving drills, and then push for a project where I can prove I can make the right call in a heartbeat. That’s my next level.
ZachemDelat
Sounds like a solid plan, Pinto—reaction time is the ultimate edge in both gaming and business. I can help you map out those drills and choose a project that really tests that quick‑fire skill. Just keep reminding yourself that each split‑second decision is also a chance to learn and refine your playbook. Ready to roll?
