Not an expert on these types of things but I think that there’s this notion of a type A personality that gets overly glorified in the self-help and corporate productivity realms...at least from what I’ve noticed. I’ve found it to be silly though because I’ve also noticed top workers that are perfectly calm, easy to talk to, and not competitive in the slightest.
And yes, these types of subjective things can be argued eternally but these have been my observations and experience.

I find people who “like to complete” to be short sighted, and often produce bad work over the long run - they already think they are “the best” and often don’t improve in a broader picture. The cup is already full so to speak. Almost all paths are for “type A”s in the tech world. Seems people didn’t learn anything from MoneyBall.
