Mistakes are inevitable at startups. Learning from them takes deliberate effort.

At larger companies, performance reviews are the primary time people reflect on what’s wrong.

At startups, there’s no time to keep making the same mistakes.

Here’s how I reflect on mistakes ❤️👇 Postmortems.

I had never heard of a postmortem until I started building software.

Now I do them at least once a month 🤓

They let you objectively look at all the facts of a situation, identify what went wrong, and what can be done better next time.

1/ Quitting my job was the best decision I ever made. For years, I had an itch. I wanted to leave my job at a big company, wanted to be independent and creative, but I was too scared to make a move. The work was interesting and I was paid well. 2/ I loved the people I worked with, and I was learning. Which is why I questioned my itch to leave and didn’t act on it for three years. This week, I’m launching @usefyi with @hnshah, something I never would have done had I stayed at my job and not listened to my gut.
