Keep in mind that success is often worse than failure. If you fail - it's the same level and problems again. If you succeed - it's a new level with different, tougher problems. There is value in staying on the same level and running the same loop.

The main thing is to optimize the loop, until you're running it to the delight of everyone, at easily sustainable pace. And then be even more humble with every new level you take on. There is a bigger risk of failure, you're more likely to fail. Be sure it's a failure you can recover from.
as long as you don't fall pray to your ambition - it's all good. added second post to clarify:

That’s one counterintuitive truth, but yeah I totally agree. Success is way more dangerous than failure.
