by M. Funk, 2012
Even the most brilliant act of human genius, in the final analysis, is an act of trial and error.

Failure will happen if you try something new
Only if failure CAN happen you are actually trying something new
A trick will only work for a while, until everyone else is doing it.

Ok, new rules, new players, new whatever

Ok, go away, start from scratch

• working “against” is not productive
• indicates you should do something else now
• wait for the right time
• work on many things
• plan pressure, deadlines are good
• sometimes, good is good enough

‘out of control’ style
Error, whether random or deliberate, must become an integral part of any process of creation.
