noiz viol8ion blog #575 – Try Try Again
Success doesn’t always comes easy. Often times success come after years and years of failure. It’s like The Matrix when Neo takes his first jump off the building. He is supposed to be the chosen one but he crashes to the ground just like everyone else. This is a metaphor for success. Most likely the first version of anything is going to be horrendous. This stops some people from trying and this encourages some people to keep going. The only way to get the success is to get this first version out the door as fast as possible. Collect the feedback as you go along and work on the next version. Keep making improvements and iterations. You will never reach that perfection because with each version you will learn and use on the next. Soon it will take less time to get the same results that took you forever.

You will retool and ponder why things went wrong and then implement a new strategy. Grow thick skin and dream big because the bigger the dreams you have the more you will hear from the critics.
