"Who doesn't have a thousand ideas that will make us rich, enhance the world, or just be fun? Fail as quickly as you can so you can get opinions that help. A rough prototype is better than the one you'll get around to any decade now."
In other words, don't suffer analysis paralysis. I got another invitation to tutor an accounting student this week. I'm no master accountant, but I know that if I tutor him:
1. I'll do some things well.
2. I'll do some things wrong.
3. I'll get better.
Two out of three ain't bad! In fact there's often no #3 without #2. Who knows, maybe some day I'll become the premier accounting tutor in the city. When hoops are in front of you, take a quick peek to make sure it doesn't lead to a bottomless chasm - and then jump.
