Preparing to be wrong means accepting that some of your ideas or assumptions may not work out as planned, and that’s okay! In product development, it’s important to stay flexible and open to feedback. Testing your assumptions is key because it helps you discover what works and what doesn’t, without wasting too much time or resources.

Start by viewing every test or experiment as a learning opportunity. If something doesn’t go as expected, ask yourself, “What can I learn from this?” Instead of being discouraged, use the results to make improvements.

Being ready to be wrong also means having backup plans in case an assumption fails. This mindset helps you stay adaptable, learn faster, and ultimately build better products that truly meet your users' needs.
