Requirement vs. Feedback

Requirements are cheap. Feedback is all that matters.

Requirements come easily. We just ask them a simple question like “What do you want?” Gathering requirements is just you listen to them talking.

Feedback is hard to earn. You cannot just ask for feedback unless you take some real work first. If you want to know what they think about your idea, at least you must think and communicate. If you want to know how they feel about your product, at least you must build your product.

All the effort you put in to open up a chance to seek feedback is a real deal. Because feedback is harder to earn than requirements, it tends to be more valuable by nature.

One who will success in business is not one who collects requirements faster and more efficiently. But it is one who obtains feedback faster and respond to it more efficiently.

In short, feedback is superior to requirements. And, feedback wins every time.

Thinking and writing are the things I like. Sharing is what I love. Because of them, I write everyday to share stories from my thoughts and experiences, from the future I see and believe in. Everything I use to build Inthentic a better home. A home of people who want to do good things and give back. A home that is a small starting point of changes for a better society. I am proud of what I am doing. And even prouder to know that I am not doing it alone.
