SPEED MATTERS: WHY WORKING QUICKLY IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN IT SEEMS

Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

The obvious benefit to working quickly is that you’ll finish more stuff per unit time. But there’s more to it than that. If you work quickly, the cost of doing something new will seem lower in your mind, so you’ll be inclined to do more. Google famously prioritized speed as a feature. They realized that if search is fast, you’re more likely to search. The reason is that it encourages you to try stuff, get feedback, and try again. Working fast ends up implicitly lowering the activation energy to do new tasks, which means you get more done and try more things.
