Learn, monkey. Damn it.

There’s nothing worse than watching someone make the same mistakes. This morning it was in a presentation given by a colleague. The guy has good ideas, many I agree with. When he presents them to our group, though, he tends to begin with the conclusion, and the discussion goes way off from where it should be. He encountered some strong realtime rebuttals from senior management, from other staff, even from newer staff. It’s entirely his fault. He made the hour extremely hard for himself. It’s because he didn’t learn from the last time this happened.

That’s your only key. Learn constantly, and iterate on your self, your projects. Don’t feel proud about “doing it your way.” Feel proud about constantly improving “your way.”

Thor.

That is all.
