Fat End Down
What are the antipatterns to lean? If I'm retrofitting lean practices onto my project, what obvious gotchas should I look out for? It would be useful to hear people's frustrations with applying lean practices, identify the most common problems, and sketch out a map of how to avoid them.

Also, it's tough to translate Lean Startup for really traditional contexts, like applying for a loan at the bank. The brutal honestly of the Lean Startup approach seems to create polarised results - either it's understood and appreciated, or it clearly isn't checking the right boxes.

I find it's hard to let go of the vision sometimes. Being optimistic is part of entrepreneurial DNA, I guess, but it's made me misinterpret feedback in the past.
