Recently just went through exactly what Mr Atwood describes. Its really hard to ship the product when you are just too worried what people might think. You know you can do a better job if you just had a few more hours which become days and then weeks and the next thing you know you’re still not ready.

Once you realize that its never going to be good enough. And that probably some features that you would have otherwise taken days to fix up, are now something not even useful to the users as your team had previous thought.

I’m learning to cope with that fear. I’m learning to ship it even though I know about the problems. Its doesn’t have to be great on the first try. It just has to be good enough.
