Matt Ringel (@ringel) says this frequently about Go: “lose your first 3,000 games as fast as you can.” You learn a lot from your failures. If you take this literally, the Android app Hactar Go Lite is a perfect way to learn go.
Hactar starts you out with simple Go problems and as you find your own solutions it lets you advance gradually. By the time you finish all the problems you will have developed your own strategy and what’s equally important you will recognize an unwinnable situation early on! Because knowing when to stop doing something is key to overall success.
Now apply this thought to other areas of your life. Is this relevant anywhere else?
