That Doesn’t Work… But We Are Getting Closer
At Tatango we have been wrestling with one function of our website for months now, and it’s frustrating as hell. This one function alone has caused heated arguments, hundreds of revisions, and many a late night at the office. We just tried a new approach to fix this function, and it failed yet again. After this failure, one of our new employee threw up his hands and said “this sucks, we just wasted a week and haven’t got any closer to solving the problem”. That’s not the way to think as an entrepreneur. Think of trying different approaches to a problem like Russian Roulette. You know one of those chambers has a bullet, the more blanks you fire, the closer you are to figuring out which one has the bullet. (maybe not the perfect analogy because in Russian Roulette, you don’t want to find the bullet, but I think you get the idea.)
