Quote by Christina Wodtke

First: the best is the enemy of the good, trying to be perfect or trying to meet infinite context will both make you crazy and make you miss your launch date. The only thing to do is to create a product for your users. Not The User but the specific audience for whom your product is intended.quoting Voltaire best is the enemy of the good

First: the best is the enemy of the good, trying to be perfe

Summary

This quote by Voltaire underscores the idea that the pursuit of perfection can hinder progress and productivity. It urges us to prioritize creating a good and functional product for our intended audience, rather than striving endlessly for perfection. Perfectionism, in many cases, can delay the launch or completion of a project, whereas focusing on creating something "good" allows us to meet the needs of our users and move forward. It serves as a reminder to find a balance between excellence and timely execution.

When by the Ruins oft I past My sorrowing eyes aside did castAnd here and there the places spyWhere oft I sate and long did lie.Here stood that Trunk, and there that chest,There lay that store I counted best,My pleasant things in ashes lieAnd them behold no more shall I.Under the roof no guest shall sit,Nor at thy Table eat a bit.No pleasant talk shall 'ere be toldNor things recounted done of old.No Candle 'ere shall shine in Thee,Nor bridegroom's voice ere heard shall bee.In silence ever shalt thou lie.
