Do you want to know The Secret of Chess, HM Pinwigov?

It's just one word. One word.

One simple tiny word.

Teeny tiny teeny ickle tiny word.

Itsy bitsy ickle teeny- alright, I'll stop-

The word is: Development

And you, sir, this night, are developing very well.

Develop. Develop. Develop. Develop. DEVELOP!

To quote the great Paul Morphy: "Help your pieces, so they can help you."

I'm not sure discussing would help, there's a lot going on and a lot of stored energy in the position. Anything could happen!

Thrilling, isn't it? It's the ultimate puzzle.
