High fit

Volume is how strongly you project your thoughts and emotions into the world. Oprah Winfrey, at six years old, turned her volume all the way up — not loudly or emotionally, but precisely. She wrote a letter, listed the books of the Bible, repeated the demonstration on demand in the principal's office, and got herself moved to first grade. She chose to project her interior reality outward rather than contain it. That choice — to make the inner external — defined how she navigated authority for the rest of her life.
