Increase Your Failure Rate Today

Treat most decisions as reversible experiments. Before overthinking, ask: is this a 'Type 2' decision (low risk, easy to reverse)? If yes, act quickly and iterate.

Celebrate and document failures. Institute regular team or personal reviews of what didn't work, extracting learnings and sharing openly to prevent repeated mistakes.

Remove bureaucracy. Streamline approval chains and grant authority to small teams or yourself to execute ideas fast, only requiring caution for truly irreversible choices.
