Introduction
What’s more important in business: speed or perfection?
Let me save you the hassle and give you the answer right away.
The answer is simple: speed.
You’ll never be perfect. Don’t even try.
Perfection is the silent killer of progress.
The trap of perfection
Too many entrepreneurs spend endless hours tweaking, polishing, and overanalyzing before launching.
They convince themselves they’re “just making it better,” when in reality, they’re stalling.
If you’re spending all your time trying to be perfect, you will fail.
Why?
Because perfection is subjective. It’s imaginary.
It’s a moving target that keeps shifting as you grow.
The Power of Speed
The goal isn’t to build something flawless.
The goal is to get your product to market, fast.
Make sure it’s adequate, functional, and solves a real problem.
Then, over time, improve it based on feedback from actual customers.
Not your family. Not your friends, but the real customers, the ones who pay because your product solves their problem.
Real feedback > Perfect planning
Your customers are your best teachers.
Every piece of feedback, every complaint, every suggestion helps you shape a better version of your product.
That’s how products evolve. Not through overthinking in isolation, but through cumulative use and real-world iteration.
The greatest products you know today weren’t perfect on day one.
They became great because they were used, refined, and improved repeatedly.
Food for thought
Perfection is an illusion. Progress is real.
So, launch faster. Listen more. Improve constantly.
Because in business, speed to market beats perfection every single time.
