Nope, you're projecting. Just spent weeks researching this. There are two distinct drives here with different behavioral heat signatures

Twitter version: 'prove something' drive is what you guys cover in Hustle. Other drive (obviously 'Hack') has different energy source

litmus test, if behaviors tend more towards exploration, poke-with-stick, it's hack. If towards exploitation, doubling down, it's hustle

There isn't one in most curiosity driven behaviors. That's why most of it is private and has no consequence outside of satisfying itself

FWIW wrt Hustle -- I am impartial as to source of motivation -- see dropbox.com/s/mzf2k19x1p6g

my point is, some drives will result in behaviors that are not hustle... hustle covers about 25% of motivated behavior space i'd guess

I think you may have lost me. My initial point was that "proof imperative" is often (always?) invisible to ourselves

I'm saying it isn't invisible; it actually doesn't exist as a major drive for many. It's a personality trait, not universal human drive
Ability to hustle is one external sign that the proof-drive exists and is strong in a person
