I'd vote against restating the category title ("Most Likely to Change
the Way You Do Everything") in the first half of the sentence. It is
slightly better with Carsten's "truly", but still kind of begs the
question. So I'd say stay with the original version (with a slight
preference for 'evolve' over 'shape'.)
