Summary

Software engineers often have perfectionist tendencies, striving for error-free code and successful compilations. However, when transitioning into a Tech Lead role, the focus should shift from perfectionism to pragmatism. Building a product involves iterative improvements towards "good enough" rather than immediate perfection. This approach allows for continuous progress in creating a better product while acknowledging that achieving an unqualified "great" may require time and user feedback.
