Would it be fair to say that one core claim of your post is “There’s many a time when you will be better served by choosing actions based off of the hero-role script, as opposed to ‘worrying about the details’ ”?
I think that mythic mode makes more sense when one is thinking about it as an iterative strategy. Looking at the your NYC monk story as a one-off, it’s easy to conclude, “yeah, it worked, but the careful planning route is what you should have done.” Whereas if you think of mythic mode as an iterative strategy, it’s far easier to conclude “More often then not, acting from mythic mode will produce results.”
To me it doesn’t feel like there has to be any belief in some “the universe is on my side” idea. Mythic mode seems to encompass feelings of “stay focused on the deeper goal”, “be flexible”, and “try things you wouldn’t normally try”, all of which are strategies that I expect to be very effective at making stuff happen.
