Alex feels that the time to act has come. The future depends on what he decides to do now and, moreover, he can count on his friend Lía's help.
How will your mission begin?
Alex starts working on a prototype of a smart lamp that turns off by itself when it detects natural light. It works… almost. Sometimes it responds, other times not.
Stop and analyze what is happening. Not everything is solved with more attempts.
You're doing great! If you keep trying, you'll succeed.
What should I do?
The deadline is soon. Will you be able to arrive on time?
Alex decides to observe his environment. He notes habits, interviews neighbors, and discovers something curious: many people leave chargers plugged in all day. The idea of an automatic energy-saving reminder arises.
Don't you think you should rest before the presentation?
Alex spends nights adjusting sensors and retouching parts. Each test fails a little less than the previous one. He is exhausted, but feels he's close to achieving it.
What should Alex do?
The goal is not to make it perfect, but to make it work well. Decide where your effort adds the most value.
Alex turns off the lamp and observes calmly. After noting patterns and reviewing components, he discovers a simple fault: the sensor was poorly calibrated. He could redo the entire system… or just fix what’s necessary.
What do you think is the best solution?
During the presentation, Alex proudly shows his device that turns off plugs when it detects inactivity. Everything is going well… until the device starts to malfunction.The audience murmurs, and Alex feels nervousness.
How do you think Alex should act?
Alex creates a simpler version:an app that reminds to unplug electrical devices. It works without failures, although it is not as sophisticated as his initial idea.
Wow, what a great solution, this could help many people!
What to do?
Sometimes, innovating also means knowing when to stop.
The value of simplicity
Alex presents his project as it is. It’s not perfect, but it works and clearly demonstrates its purpose. The jury values his creativity and ability to prioritize what is essential.
Simplicity and clarity can be more valuable than perfection.
restart
The unexpected achievement
Alex's project works and also looks attractive. The jury highlights its balance between design and impact. Although it doesn't win first prize, it receives a special mention for its practical innovation.
Your idea improves lives and that's what matters.
Perseverance and practical focus lead to sustainable results.
restart
At least you dared to try, that is also innovation.
Wow… too soon,but brave
Tired and under pressure, Alex tries to do everything perfectly. During the presentation, the prototype fails in front of the jury. Still, he receives applause for his effort.
Excess ambition or improvisation can cause loss of perspective, but mistakes also teach us.
restart
The failure that teaches
Alex presents an incomplete model but with a good underlying idea. The jury appreciates his analysis, although they acknowledge he lacked time.
Not winning isn’t failure. Every attempt moves you forward.
Reflecting and failing consciously is an essential part of the creative process.
