All right.
Agency is the belief and the practice that you have the power to change what's in front of you.
Not everything, not all at once.
But something.
And the truth is no one can give you that agency.
You have to claim it yourself.
So what does this actually look like?
For starters, it means you stop waiting for better processes and start improving one step of the current process.
It means you stop waiting for a better brief or better Jira tickets and you ask sharper questions in the very next meeting.
It means you stop waiting for someone to prioritize the user or the customer and you become the one who keeps bringing the conversation back to them.
None of this is sexy, none of this gets a medal, but it's the work.
That's also how you stop feeling helpless.
Because believe me, nothing feeds burnout faster than helplessness.
And nothing protects you from that helplessness better than agency.
Look, I'm not pretending this is easy.
I know you're already stretched thin.
I know how soul crushing it is to be the only one fighting for clarity or consistency or usability or just you know
doing things in a non half assed kind of way.
But if you're gonna stay in this profession, okay, if you're gonna survive and grow in this mess.
You need to build the muscle of acting anyway.
