Focus on a 🔥 problem

Ask users, but watch what they do. Often they don’t know to express what they want. But their actions give you the data.

Make your decisions based on behavioural information from users.

Keep it simple.

1. A meaningful problem to solve for that brings us closer to a better future for as many people as possible

2. Ongoing user research—discovery, usability + comprehension, then iterate, and repeat! (I do stick to the 5-8 per study rule though)

3. Thoughtfulness + intentionality in every step of the product dev cycl

I don’t think it’s the number of user interviews that’s important, but I think they’re a good way to make sure you’re building a product for the real world, not just a world that exists only in your head (aka you’re the only user)

I think these both are important, but are not sure fire ways of defining a good product. ￼
