Do you ever finish a big project but then realize or learn that you could have done it cheaper, better, and easier but now it's too late? How do I stop thinking about it. It keeps me up at night.
>>2876675Move on to the next thing
Did you make the best decision with the time you had? If so, you did okay.The internet has fucked us with the expectation that you have the world's knowledge at your fingertips, never you mind that search engines are kinda crap now and actual research is still hard.
>>2876675Is the project done? Does it work? Fuck it, move on to the next thing like >>2876677 said.
>>2876675There are many roads to the same destination. Some more complex than others. Each under different circumstances and always unique to the man walking the path. What matters is the accomplishment. And as a secondary goal: did you learn anything?It sounds like you did; you achieved your goal and you learned how to do it better next time. That is a complete success. Take a moment to thank God for his guidance, and move on to the best task.
>>2876675it's called learningyou walk away with experiencenow you are a better person
>>2876675Only every time. What the hell, now you've gained Experience Points. One of the reasons that a professional IS a professional, is because he's run into the same sort of shit, a thousand times.
>>2876675All the fuckin time. But being a /diy/-er still puts you out front in the end if you're not retarded. It's like feeling a dip in the stock market, it's sort of beside the point
Move on.When crossing the Panama canal you offer to help others before you cross this was standard practice, it was told to me by strangers as a polite thing to do, my dad told me it was to make mistakes with other people shit. My dad was right many hands make light work so any mistake is corrected before any damage can occur it is a good system.Tldr: small scale modeling building for a stranger talking to experts can help in the future.
>>2876675Take what you learned into your next project; as you evaluate what you could have done better/cheaper/whatever, ask yourself WHY, get to the root, then apply the base principles to whatever you do next.Also, as you get older and more experienced, you’ll care less about how it looks and more about its efficiency of function.
>>2876759agreed but also fuck off christfag
>>2876675>How do I stop thinking about it. It keeps me up at nightDon't. Its part of a process we in the industry call "learning"
