Embracing Failure: The Journey of a Builder and Maker
https://timleland.com/embracing-failure-the-journey-of-a-builder-and-maker/
This post is a brief story of the history of the projects and apps I’ve built over the years. I want to highlight how important it is not to give up when things go wrong but instead, learn from these bumps in the road. For over 10 years, I’ve worked on many random projects.
This post is inspired by Pieter Levels’ tweet on how only 4 out of hit 70+ projects ever made money, and 95% of everything he made failed.
Looking back on all these projects, there’s one thing I keep learning: keep making, keep trying. Each project, whether it’s a hit or miss, teaches you something new. These lessons pile up over time and help you improve; eventually, you’ll succeed.
