Service jobs teach you to read body language to prevent problems because you can't afford problems

You can't defeat uncertainty with pessimism. The best pessimism can do is to save effort that would have be wasted by some of the experiments. But enough experimenting leads to experience. Experience reduces uncertainty.
It might boil down to:
You can't defeat uncertainty. Experiment.

You’ve already failed
No project is going to exactly match every hope you have for it. And even before you ship the work, you've already succeeded. No project is totally worthless. So, given that failure and success are on a spectrum, at least partly out of our control, the real question is: Now…
