The plot-twist
Turns mid-sentence and means it.

.01 - Field notes
Pivot was going to be a lawyer. Then a chef. Then ran a record label for eighteen months. Now does something nobody can quite explain at a dinner party. All of it on purpose.
Pivot doesn't see a CV. Pivot sees a series of useful experiments.
When the plan stops working, Pivot is the one who says it out loud. Not loudly. Just first.
.02 - The rules of pivot
New evidence, new answer.
Holding a bad position to look consistent is a tax on your future.
Say it before you have to.
The pivot you announce is leadership. The one you hide is a scandal.
Burn the deck, keep the deck slides.
Reuse what worked. Bin what didn't. Don't be sentimental.
Wear Pivot.
