I am a 10x engineer. I have the awesome capability to show you that a project is going to cost 10x the time/budget, and why you don’t need it, and should probably focus on the obvious 1x idea.

But if you claim to be a 10x you’d be able to finish their 1x idea in 1/10th of the time wouldn’t you?

If you can quickly cope with reality and accept some of the surprising stuff out there, I believe then you can be a 10x. Although this makes the scope 2x and you are just 5x then

I always go with 11x engineer. It’s even better than 10x
