Before doing user interviews: my product is great! it's done. it works just as intended. After doing user interviews: my product sucks. it's riddled with bugs. i can't believe anyone can actually use this thing. It's really easy to get stuck in your bubble. Reality is undefeated!

appreciate this, but have had the opposite as well! Before doing user interviews: my product sucks! it's broken. 1000 things to fix... After doing user interviews: huh, it actually works and they like it. it's still riddled with bugs but they like it anyway, curious...

Any chances that user interviews reveals we had the wrong user in mind when building the product, and not that the product itself sucks?

When I started out I would get mad and assume that users were just dumb but over time I became grateful that folks would take the time to help me improve the product rather than just walk away from it. One of the biggest unlocks for me was just assuming that if one user experienced an issue, no matter how inane, others would too.

even better when you put mockups and prototypes in front of (potential) users – then you don't waste time building something people don't want!
