The prototype mindset
Prototyping is all about creating an illusion. To prototype your solution, you’ll need a temporary change of philosophy: from perfect to just enough, from long-term quality to temporary simulation. This is the “prototype mindset,” and it’s made up of four simple principles:
Change Doesn’t Happen Overnight
Testing and validating ideas in smaller groups is a great Trojan Horse for more meaningful changes. But regardless of meaningfulness, change takes time.
Humans don’t deal well with big changes. And it’s important to stay strong and not get frustrated if the progress is slower than you’d hop...
Challenge the food police
The “food police” are those voices in your head that tell you it’s good to eat fewer calories and it’s bad to eat dessert. The food police can be real people too.
