Building in public is nerve-racking

There's something terrifying about showing your work before it's "ready." As a product manager, I've spent years perfecting presentations, polishing demos, and waiting for that magical moment when everything feels complete.

But building Sellr has taught me that perfection is the enemy of progress. Every day I don't ship is a day I'm not learning from real users. Every feature I polish in isolation is a feature that might miss the mark entirely.

The ADHD brain in me loves the dopamine hit of completing something perfectly. But the PM in me knows that user feedback trumps internal perfection every single time. So here I am, building in public, embracing the messy middle, and learning to love the process over the outcome.

If you're building something and waiting for it to be "ready" – ship it today. Your future self will thank you for the early feedback, even if your current self cringes at the rough edges.
