If my first try at a game isn't at least moderately successful, I generally switch games. If I find myself stalling out and unable to level up, I switch games. I don't know what to call this attitude. Least-effort, zero-iteration, disrupt-only luck-orienteering.

It is the exact opposite of an entrepreneurial attitude to things. But anti-entrepreneurial rather than entrepreneurial. A different pattern of adaptation rather than a non-adaptive stick-in-the-mudness. Breaking smart like water rather than rock.

What kind of paths are an example of this yes/no control?
-
Tech entrepreneurship/VC (VC or LP y/n), sales (customer y/n), team-creativity fields like music, movies, screenwriting (producer y/n), sports (team manager/captain y/n), paycheck jobs (interviewers y/n), academia (peer reviewers, grant reviewers y/n)

i often think about how computers and the internet in the 90s was grounded in capability but now it's getting more and more grounded in permission
-
Yes! The capability versus permission thing is critical idea here. I really dislike permissioned environments for primary creative work, and tolerate it elsewhere (visas, passports...)

I had this issue all my life till I accidentally ended up doing BD/sales out of college, and discovered that no didn’t affect me at all, setting me on an entrepreneurial path.

I am the opposite. It sounds cool to never give up, but there are many times I should have pivoted earlier.
