Ship fast, learn faster - failure is data

What's the worst product you've ever shipped? I don't think you're a good PM if you haven't shipped something that's really shitty, you just haven't had enough reps.

When you keep taking action, action, action, win or lose, win or lose, you'll get where you need to go. And that turned out to be true. But in those moments, I was not thinking that was going to turn out to be true.

I'm kind of okay with being pretty sure I'm going to fail at something, and still attempting it.

Evans failed during a high-profile Amazon product launch that angered CEO Jeff Bezos, but was later promoted to VP.

We are very encouraged in our lives, especially professionally, to talk about our A side all the time because that's what impresses people... But between all of those highlights, there were so many B moments that get shoved under the rug.
