1512 words<\/a>. Written: 492<\/b>.<\/p>\n Honour and glory. Wealth and thanks. Attention and respect. That's what we probably all want. Well, at least that's what I want.<\/span><\/p>\n\nHowever, some of my articles are complete nonsense.<\/li>\n Some of the novellas are an explosion of thoughts.<\/li>\n Some of the lectures are jumping around awkwardly.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nI don't like it myself. Clearly, it was not done on purpose. It just happened.<\/p>\n
Why?<\/p>\n
One of my favourite authors, Seth Godin, said: your products can be either new or quality, but not together.<\/p>\n
FIRST: New, innovative products...<\/h3>\n ....are the ones that knock life out of its normal course, knocking out entire markets or habits of thought, knocking out fuses in minds.<\/p>\n
This:<\/p>\n
\nA book about a boy, Harry, who enters a magic school. Everyone tells Harry \"Harry, don't do it\" and Harry says \"Harry does\". One of the most memorable fantasy franchises of the last decade.<\/li>\n Electronic music played by two masked dudes. It's a strange music, but it was probably one of the ones that started the modern wave of electronic music.<\/li>\n A furniture shop where the furniture is high quality and the prices are low, because you assemble it in your own home. The story of the Scandinavian world conquest.<\/li>\n A military manoeuvre that smashes the defending opponent and the attacking one - what if we build two walls around the cloak? Julius Caesar's victory in some battle whose name I keep forgetting.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nAll of this is open to error. It all could have failed. Hundreds and thousands of similar ideas may never have worked... But this one changed everything.<\/p>\n
ANTRA: Old, quality products...<\/h3>\n ...When you buy them, you get what you always expected. They're so hard-working, they don't cost a fortune. They're high quality, long-lasting and will last until innovation arrives.<\/p>\n
After all:<\/p>\n
\nIt's said that the McDonalds burger tastes exactly the same all over the world, so if you don't want to get sick from local Asian food, eat at McDonalds.<\/li>\n The Bible is said to be such a good book, and Christianity as a religion is said to be so good, because it has taken 2017, if not more, to work out its trite but effective truths.<\/li>\n It is said that what makes a Buggati, Aston Martin, Ferarri or any other luxury car so good is that its makers will never risk giving you an untested experiment.<\/li>\n Modern computer chips are said to go through over a million value calculation tests before they reach your computer, phone or bank server shelves.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nThere is no room for error anywhere. There is only long, boring, calculated work that has been tested hundreds of times. Every time you get that, you get quality.<\/p>\n
And lo and behold, my FREE content is sometimes terrible.<\/h2>\n I created a free article. I was invited to a seminar for which nobody pays (neither the participants to the organisers nor the organisers to me). I shared the idea on my Facebook wall.<\/p>\n
... \"Free\" is a very peculiar phrase. Because what is free for the recipient does not mean that it is free for the producer.<\/p>\n
And I can present what I already know every time. What I know. Another article with the same phrases. Another seminar that will have everyone nodding their heads at the end. One more Facebook post saying \"wow, how true\".<\/p>\n
But isn't that a waste of my resources? After all, I could use the opportunity to make some mistakes.<\/p>\n
But this is not about me.<\/h3>\n This is about you.<\/p>\n
What do you create? And how?<\/p>\n
Do you allow yourself to experiment one day? Or do you allow yourself to create something that is of full quality and workmanship on other days, when you really need it?<\/p>\n
As I mentioned, Seth Godin has said that it is impossible to mix the two approaches.<\/p>\n
And I hope you are not trying to create a quality experiment? After all, you can see that it wouldn't work?<\/p>\n
