summary

Uses Mario Kart to give concrete career tools: set a 3–5 year direction not a distant dream, turn it into SMART goals, use a 10-step scale to pick the next smallest step, learn just outside 100cc comfort not stuck at 50cc or blown away at 200cc, brand work so others notice, insist on decent hardware, expect setbacks like a five month burnout and plan recovery, coach metrics include mentoring 66 .NET developers and tracking small measurable wins.
