Version 3 isn’t here yet
There’s a lot to do, isn’t there.
So many areas of the business or product that just aren’t quite there yet.
That’s fine. You’re on Version 1:
Version 1 isn’t the end. It’s fine for now. It may not be fine for later, but it wasn’t made for later. Version 2 can’t happen before Version 1 does.
Version 2 isn’t the end, either. It’s better than Version 1, but it sure isn’t as good as Version 3 will be. Let Version 2 be Version 2, without judgement compared to what comes next.
Version 3 is a long way away from today’s Version 1. Knowing what you think Version 3 will look like might inform some decisions you make today, but trying to force it is to try forcing Version 1 to be Version 3. It isn’t.
Everything might benefit from improvement. But none will benefit from you trying to improve all of them at once, all of the time.
Let Version 1 be what it is. Be proud of it, and thankful you have the vision to see what comes next. It lets us enjoy the ride.
