Meaning
This points to purpose before status. It can be taken to mean that real drive comes from where you are headed and what you care about, not from the title or place you happen to hold right now. It fits moments when a role looks impressive on paper but no longer gives direction, and the deeper reason to keep going has to come from the bigger picture.
