Welcome to Day 46 of

To Be A Product Manager

It』s 9:25PM, Friday night. I was still at office.

So today our Internet went down, we cannot do a lot of stuff without network. But we still managed to have a meeting with American team in the morning, then discussed website visual design in the afternoon.

I also had a skype call with a entrepreneur in France who are passionate about VR education. Got some really good resources and websites which I will dive into later.

The Internet came back at around 4:00PM, so I started making changes to the website design instantly. And just now, I finished the new copywriting and wireframe.

Goals

Website
New mission statement
Skype call

Challenges

The only challenge I met during the day is probably in the website discussion meeting. One thing I learned from the discussions in the past few months is that,

Bring your ideas to the table, no matter how bad you think it is.

To quote Ryan Holiday』s EGO IS THE ENEMY, my favorite book of 2016:

You』re not that good as people think you are, and you are also not that bad as people think you are.

Every one has their own experiences with life and different scenarios of using technology. Even there are only 3 of you discussing some features, it is possible your suggestion can represent million of people.

So be bold to hold on to your idea, and with your whys.

My name is Zake Zhang, a newbie VR product manager based in Shenzhen, China. I』m thinking what if I write daily product journal for 1,000 days?

Thanks for reading and let』s keep on hacking!

Warm Regards,

Zake

be so good they can』t ignore you.
