These 6 factors have a bigger impact:
• Have you started?
Most people sit on the sidelines looking for reasons not to start.
Instead, you should be looking for reasons to start.
Even a small step can create forward momentum.

• How did you start?
Starting with no plan can be disastrous.

• Have you evolved when necessary?
A willingness to iterate shows that you have a willingness to learn.
But, it’s a balance. Being able to discern when it’s time to iterate versus when it’s time to dig in a skill you develop through action and time (the last element).

‣ learn more
‣ get opportunities to iterate
‣ receive & apply feedback
Missing any one of them slows down your progress.
