There's a neat / weird ladder that I keep seeing friends go through as they work through this.

- Volume. Kill the backlog! 8 agents in terminals, frantically!

- Ambition. Do the things you always want to do! You have the power!

- Clarity. Oh god I have to figure out what to do next.

That last one is honestly super-hard, but it's also the most valuable. Like, do you want to wake up every day and find new work, because you understand the machine better than everybody else? I know a bunch of people that love that stuff, but also a bunch that don't. I totally get that the transition is hard.
