I feel like you're suggesting two things in this post:

1. Holmes does not have perspective due to her focus on work.

2. Perspective is needed to build a successful business.

I think these are revealed to be inconsistent when we add in the following:

3. Holmes has already built a successful business.

Since (3) is known to be true, at least one of (1) or (2) has to be thrown out or weakened.

That said, I think DevX101 was focusing on her happiness and you were focusing on her success. We have no evidence that Holmes is happy. We only have evidence that she's been successful.
