And I'm sure our listeners are just like, everybody's lived through that project that like you put your heart into and you're proud of it technically. And then it's just like, yeah, it's never going to see the light of day. And then you can think, well, at least I got paid well. Hopefully you can think that. Or learn. Or learn. Yeah, exactly. You try to get like silver linings out of it. Yeah.

So yeah, simplicity is really tough.

Well, it goes back to one of your favorite sayings, slow and steady wins the race.

Yeah. Well said. And that's how you win. Yeah, exactly. And especially in a digital landscape that can change dynamically as we build it, like we are building things that are completely malleable and we can, we can completely destroy our creations by just making that rash decision, you know, going through that one way door and not realizing it was a one way. And then you get out over your skis.

If I might just use like all the cliches. And it's too late, like you're gonna land on your face. And now you're way backwards, right? Now you're just playing catch up. And so many of our projects are playing catch up with the timeline because we set the timeline too drastically. And so we cut corners and made bad decisions and moved too fast.

And then that thing's never going to ship because of all the tech that we've accrued. And it's like, whew, if we would have slowed down and checked ourself, we'd actually be moving faster in the long run. There you go. Good summary. Okay. That's one of mine. Slow down and go faster. I haven't changed my mind. I did find the original blog post. It was 2010. So, yes, I wrote that 15 years ago.

Wow, man. What was it titled? Slow down and go faster. There you go. Too good. What makes me mad is I think, I don't think I, I'm not sure if I coined that, but I'm definitely one of the only people that have written that or like probably the first one. And if you Google it, like other jokesters show up first and say, come on people. Why does McKinsey and company?

This, this guy, Jared Santa's got some good ideas. Let's just take his title. Who are these McKinsey people? And then somebody on medium. It's like, come on y'all. That was written in 2023. Anyways, ideas are cheap, so I don't deserve much for that one. And I don't think I invented it either. But if you Google the exact phrase, you'd think that my post would show up.

I'm sorry. I'll backlink you, bro. I'll get you up there. Yeah, we're already doing everything we can.
