When Two Sentences Changed Everything
Annie Downs sat at the Mocha Club and said something that would transform her life: "I've got an idea, and I'm going to start working on it tomorrow." What made this moment electric wasn't the brilliance of her idea-we'll never even know what it was. What mattered was her posture: she chose to initiate rather than wait for permission. This tiny moment captures why "Poke the Box" has sold over a million copies and become a rallying cry in Silicon Valley, where "done is better than perfect" echoes through startup offices. We live in a world obsessed with optimization, perfecting our plans until they're paralyzed. But here's the truth: nothing can be optimized until someone first has the courage to begin. The question isn't whether your idea is perfect. It's whether you'll start.
