What I should have done: Focus on Task 1 exclusively. Task 1 = the basic core product (what the customer really wants). Only do other tasks if they are absolutely required by Task 1.
What I did: A million tasks, only 14 of which were absolutely required by Task 1.
What I did right (that many others don't): Find out from prospective users what Task 1 should be. (Although it still hurts when you find this out but still don't do it.)
