You’re stuck. You’ve tried everything. You’re circling the same dead end. You've considered abandoning tech to become a goat herder in the Alps. Now what? This talk is a fast, focused guide to what actually works when you hit a wall. Spoiler: it’s not more brute force. I’ll share a practical mental model for switching from Execution Mode to Exploration Mode, with concrete tools to diagnose your stuckness, tighten your feedback loop, and make real progress—whether you’re debugging a tough problem, facing a hard decision, or spiraling in self-doubt. *** No ducks were hurt during the making of this talk.
