Strategies on development

Almost nobody is very good at something the first time they try. Many things require just a simple strategy to execute in order to really get a good handle on the concept, while other things in life must be perfected over many years in order to be done efficiently. The strategy for development is different for many people. Some learn through trial and error, while others try to get it correct each and every time until they finish things almost mechanically. A strategy I've used in the past is to try and get a good overview of what you're trying to accomplish, and then separate each specific part of the process, and finally see what you may be doing wrong with each part and attempt to correct your shortcomings through practice and perseverance. No one does everything perfectly, but the more you practice and learn from your mistakes, the closer you'll get to theoretical perfection, no matter what you're doing.
