Experiment, iterate, and learn from failures from "summary" of ReWork by David Heinemeier Hansson,Jason Fried

When you're working on something new, you have to experiment. You can't just sit around and wait for the perfect solution to hit you like a lightning bolt. That's not how it works. You have to try things out and see what works and what doesn't. You have to be willing to take risks and make mistakes. But experimenting is only half the battle. You also have to iterate. That means you have to keep refining and improving your idea based on what you learn from your experiments. You can't just try something once and then move on. You have to keep tweaking and adjusting until you get it right. And here's the key: you have to be willing to learn from your failures. Failure is not the end of the road; it's just a detour. It's a chance to figure out what went wrong and how you can do better next time. If you're not failing, you're not pushing yourself hard enough. You're not trying new things or taking risks. So don't be afraid to experiment, iterate, and learn from your failures. Embrace them as part of the process of creating something new. They're not obstacles to overcome; they're opportunities to grow and improve. And remember, the only way to truly fail is to give up. So keep pushing forward, keep trying new things, and keep learning from your mistakes. That's the path to success.
