How To Avoid Building The Wrong Thing

from Josh Moxey Podcast Hosted by Josh Moxey

I've had this challenge come up many times in my entrepreneurial journey. I start creating, design or working on a project, and then I convince myself that it's okay to use imaginary narratives instead of facing and working with actual reality. In this specific case, it meant that I was using mock data and pretend examples when I was designing a system that was supposed to be a perfect solution for my productivity challenges. Long story short, it didn't work out so well and I ended up creating the wrong productivity system. In this episode, I cover how to avoid building the wrong solution, why it's important to create, design and solve challenges using real world examples, data, use cases, situations and challenges in mind, as well as what happens if you don't. Save yourself some time and learn this lesson faster than I did, for the love of god. Please, do yourself a favour and take this advice to heart. I don't want you to waste your time and experience headaches because you put your head in the sand and create false narratives, like I have done too many times in the past. Much love, best of luck with this, and I hope you learn this lesson faster than I did. If you think someone could benefit from this message, share it with them. Music: trfk - Monday
