⚡ Speed vs. efficiency: why making faster decisions and choosing the right task matter more than speed

Struggling with inefficiency at work? Learn how to choose the right tasks, iterate quickly, and align early to achieve faster, more impactful results. 🚀

In my career, I learned that results come from following the shortest path to completion. I discovered that speed matters only when it is paired with the right choice of action. My work is guided by a simple question: what is the shortest path to finding the truth?

I learned early that working fast on the wrong task does not lead to progress. Instead, I focused on identifying the right thing to work on and confirming my approach through quick iteration.

I'm actively trying to develop strong sense of judgment—a code-sense, as Robert C. Martin calls it—to determine the most effective path. Every decision is made by asking myself, “What is the shortest path toward finding the truth here?”
