What I wish I knew before trying console for absolute beginners

My current rule is simple: if it takes less than 10 minutes to prepare, I am much more likely to keep doing it.

I started this because my late summer felt a little stuck, and indie seemed like a manageable place to experiment. The funny part is that the smallest change was the one I kept.

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.

I tried this in Lagos with a friend and we both noticed the same thing: the social part mattered more than the perfect plan.
