1. “Courage over comfort.” Just a simple reminder that there’s nothing comfortable about being courageous. Everyone wants to be brave, but no one wants to be vulnerable. P 233
2. Problem identification is always a sound investment of time, money, and energy. Einstein said, “If I had an hour to solve a problem, I’d spend 55 minutes thinking about the problem and five minutes thinking about solutions.” It feels uncomfortable to spend time and resources trying to figure out exactly what the problem is—we want to jump to fixing way too fast. Most of us are plagued with action bias and really struggle to stay in problem identification. I’ve found that getting clear about what’s wrong and why it’s a problem is the best investment you can make at home or work. P 233
3. The real work is the constant iteration, incorporating consumer feedback, troubleshooting, figuring out when to push and when to bail, and helping everyone reset after a setback and learn. —do they have emotional resonance and convey connection? Now I spend a lot of time with teams at the start of a project defining what “done” looks like, and I’m involved in their standups once a week. Our roundup team has also worked to make sure that there’s solid alignment between responsibility and authority for everyone. Key learning: Magical thinking is incredibly dangerous and will cost you more time, money, and energy than digging in ever will. P 234
