Having a clear direction is the most important thing. It keeps time and money from being wasted. You can always try again and get faster in the future.

@jayphelpsme that's the approach I always stand for! Easier to fix things, when you have a solid navigation of what you're actually building and why.

Direction with speed ;)

@pavithran_chidambaram Ya both are important but if can choose one what would it be?
Edward Cain
I think direction is just a tad more crucial. Having a solid vision really helps you make smart choices and switch things up if you have to.
@cain_edw Completely agree! Having a clear vision sets the path for success and allows for flexibility in decision-making!

That's it, plus good timing, right timing.

Agility and resilience! It is key to adapt and pivot

Speed is useless if you don't get direction. With direction, you can go fast or slow depending on periods, but you know where you're going and so you never stop.

It's speed for me. Even if I direct in the wrong direction. There is still time to correct with speed

Both speed and direction are important to succeed. Speed helps you to get to your destination faster, while direction helps you to get to the right destination. The ideal is to have both speed and direction working together in harmony.

Steady velocity, which is defined by both

In my opinion, both speed and direction are important for success, but direction is ultimately more crucial. Moving quickly without a clear direction can lead to wasted time, resources, and missed opportunities.

Direction. No point being fast if you're going in the wrong direction.

I believe it completely depends on what stage you are at. When its 0>1, nothing matters other than the speed because you'll never be sure about the direction. When it's 1>10, a healthy balance of direction and speed is important. when its' 1-100, it always boils down to direction.

In my personal experience, direction matters most. There were times when I rushed in finishing a particular task and spent days on it, however, as time passed on I noticed that I'm left behind many important other tasks that should have been done simultaneously just because I was so concerned with finishing that job quickly, I neglected the importance of other works.

Both; once you have a direction go that way fast as hell.

In a world where data is king, speed will become your best friend.

Direction then speed, it doesn't matter the speed we are going if our direction is correct
