Summary

This chapter introduces learning methods – the essential phase that transforms action into growth. After trying out a prototype, it’s tempting to move on quickly. But real progress happens when we pause to reflect, extract insights, and adapt. The Growth Journey Map is the Core Method, guiding you to make sense of your experience – what you did, what you learned, and what that means for your next step. Two additional methods enrich this reflection: PPCO Hollywood Star, a constructive feedback tool adapted from screenwriting, and Start–Stop–Continue, a simple framework to clarify what to keep, let go, or try anew. Whether your prototype felt like a success, a flop, or something in between, these tools help you close the loop with clarity, deepen your self-awareness, and fuel your momentum with a growth mindset.
