Writing down a recipe is not the same as cooking.

In the field of design, I have often encountered organizations, leaders, and designers who believed that the same system would work for us after reading a book or using a system on their Miro board. They believed that the same system would serve their needs. Not a surprise, is it?
Throughout my life, I have often tried to prepare my favorite dishes based on recipes, and I have always wondered (not) why they don't turn out as well as my mother's or in that stylish restaurant. Why could this be?
Books, schools, methods, they are all tools.
They don't provide a mindset. Mindsets are cultivated through these tools, like spices, but they also require many hours of practice and experience.
"Your beliefs become your thoughts, your thoughts become your words, your words become your actions, your actions become your habits, your habits become your values, your values become your destiny." — Mahatma Gandhi
If we only look at the quote, there are thoughts present that can be found in the methods, but actions are missing. A Design Thinking method is very useful as a first step, but it's the actions, patterns, and practice that follow, and ultimately the destiny or goal we can achieve with it.

Mindsets create blind spots.
Mindsets provide us with fragmented ways of looking at the world, never with complete facts of what is. We always see the world through the filter of our mindsets, and our mindsets are always incomplete.
What should we do to turn our recipes into delicious meals?
Often, we imagine that what we start will be good and will work. Unfortunately, that's not the case.
There's a small chance of doing something well on the first try.
You need to practice, measure, test, but one thing at a time. If you change multiple things at once, how do you know what worked and what didn't?
Plan, practice, measure, be self-reflective then itarate. Be considerate of yourself and others.
How to plan effectively?
