🚴 The power of movement

Rod's thoughts on Riding a Bike are thought provoking.

... A decision that might be bad. Yet, with it, you can steer. Just like riding a bike. If it's standing with no movement, you can direct the handle and still be where you are. It's when you're moving on the bike that you give direction.

I've often experienced this in software development where I don't really know how I'm going to solve a problem until I start coding, and then things start to emerge. The same happens with writing and sketching.

There is value in up-front planning, but there is power in movement, especially when you iterate and close-the-loop.
