"Starting from Scratch" is not All that bad




Perhaps the worst outcome most people can imagine when a project stutters is having to go back and "start from scratch".


Apparently, "scratch" is a very unhappy place for most people.


Hey, if you're lost, if you've gone down the wrong road, it doesn't make sense to speed up and keep racing down the wrong road. Instead, the smart thing is to go back to the last spot you were in, where you had a chance to find the right road and start from there.

I bet youre own hindsight shows - Starting from Scratch: Its way nicer than you actually expect it to be..
