🧠 Learned the Hard Way
This is where the scars live.
Post here when:
- something cost you money
- something broke
- a customer burned you
- you trusted the wrong person
- you learned a lesson the expensive way
What belongs:
- mistakes you won’t repeat
- jobs that went sideways
- equipment failures
- bad assumptions
- hard-earned clarity
What doesn’t:
- blaming everyone else
- rewriting history to look good
- “I knew better” after the fact
- advice with no experience behind it
This category isn’t about being right.It’s about being honest. If it hurt a little to learn, it probably belongs here.
Say what happened. Say what you missed. Say what you’d do differently.
