I’ve heard “focus on what you can control” for years, but it only became practical after reading Continuous Discovery Habits, by Teresa Torres.
The book distinguishes between lagging indicators (outcomes like revenue or conversion) and leading indicators (behaviors and signals you can influence).
That’s how I approach Power BI, UX audits, and systems work: instead of obsessing over results, I focus on where users hesitate, where friction appears, and which behaviors predict success.
Progress - in products and in life - comes from paying attention to what you can actually change.
