Thank you! In terms of 'learning to code' -- I'm actually able to build products end-to-end but have the problem that I end up building too quickly, if that mak

  You’re welcome. If you can build but are building the wrong thing, you need to: - focus on user stories by capturing them from the user with the problem-to-solve. DO not let anyone get between you and the actual user. You need to talk with them yourself and listen to them and teach yourself how to ask them questions and feel their pain. - work on your ego. You should have ego but you should be able to accept feedback. - users want perfection even though you spent so much time building it “this way“ - be willing to build it shitty the first time to get feedback early, or willing to build it nice multiple times but you don’t get to quit working on behavior because you invested the time. - Yes, it matters that the button shows the selected glow and its ugly. Fix it. Yes it matters that the element has an extra refresh blink, go back and prevent that from happening. - Bad product can be death by a million pinpricks (like Paxful Wallet right now) or it entirely lacks a feature to do something at all (like IntelliJ has no option to commit just the open file and no more.).
