Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good. A lesson that has been consistently reinforced in my recent professional life.

When embarking on a new project for which we have a vision of the end result, use that image as a guide to correct for the big picture along the way but don’t fixate on it.

Build a minimum viable prototype.

Share regularly with others – the feedback we receive can lead to crucial pivots.

Be open and adapt to changes that are aligned with the overall purpose. It is okay to take a few wrong detours, they will be good teaching moments for the future.

It is never about this one project but the learning that will feed into all our future ventures. The journey is more important than the destination.

Incremental growth is how we get from good to great. It is not achieved in a single shot.
