Totally. One bad decision snowballs another and someone tries to channel their inner Steve Jobs, when, no one is Steve Jobs.

It's one of the things I really like about lean. It forces me to shut up and forget my own opinion or beliefs. It forces me to pursue a craft and get the measurements before moving forward instead of falling risk to hallucinating my own grandeur accidentally. I like it because it helps keep me grounded, pragmatic, and focused.
