Finally, it’s time to harvest one ripe idea to try. We borrow the concept of “build - not to last, but build to LEARN”, build to connect back with those folks from earlier in your process, build to share, build to show (not tell).
What is the fastest way you can create a simple working model that you can improve over time? Again, we look to Nature. Remember, evolution works by changing one small thing at a time. New species evolve, so should your prototypes be built.
How might we learn from nature how to build? Go to asknature.org!
How does nature teach us about building?
From birds building nests to trees growing fruit, forest ecosystems, marshes that clean water, beavers building dams, ants building hills, bees building hives / making honey, etc.......
Remember: Everything starts somewhere and no one gets it totally right the first time.
