we often double down at this stage and we push through to do whatever we have to do, often making ourselves exhausted, run down, and irritable… and very rarely is the result worth it. we don’t get better testing done when we double down. in many cases, we actually do worse because we are not sharp and we are stressed out trying to cover our bases.
so as you might guess, my answer for “are you ready to double down?” i hope the answer is “no”. i don’t want you to double down on a bad bet. instead, i want to encourage you to focus on covering the highest risk areas
