The problem, in my most humble opinion, is that the big picture people tend to expect others to see what they see and they don't often explain themselves well -- even though they may have great strategic answers, they "don't show their work".
I think talent is great, but talent doesn't get you to Carnegie Hall without the practice. And I think have the VS big picture strategic vision is wonderful. And it got me some great jobs. But if I had better "show the work" discipline, I would have had better outcomes. Delivering is hard.
And the story is: the tortoise wins the race. I want my hare to win. But she has to learn to focus and keep to the task and the details. Sometimes it is difficult, impossible after sugar intake, but she is developing some good habits. And I give her a lot of exercise to just get the energy out.
When we are based on the ocean in the summer and she exhausts herself swimming in the ocean (she is only 35 lbs and it is a surfing beach), she is a much more focused thinker. And when I was running (really running, not just jogging, 5 miles each morning), I was much more focused).
