I had a disappointing first try, a surprisingly good second try, and then a third attempt that taught me humility. So, naturally, I now have opinions.

Beautifully put. I needed that reminder today. It reminds me of a very specific conversation near a tiny balcony.

I appreciate the honest middle stage, not just the polished ending. I care less about the perfect answer and more about repeatability.
