When we say "Test, measure and optimize", this is based in an interative and cientific approach on how to improove something (may this a process, a product, an experience, whatever). You need to know where to polish. Thats why I think it should consider: Design, Test, Measure, Optimize. @Juuso: I disagree with you in this case.

It's almost like saying, "It's either true or false". Hard to argue a point like that :) Haha I like number 7. It’s almost like saying, “It’s either true or false”.

A lot of what you read you don't really "learn" until you're using it in day-to-day work. Lots of times I read stuff and then just ignore it, eventually learning the truth of it the hard way. Right now all my desktop has for a wallpaper are the words "stop goofing off :)". Productivity is up. These are all great, but I especially agree with #10 as well.

Also it's possible to choose a (very) wide niche if you make Casual games. But I guess the same applies, are you making a match-3 or a HO game? Maybe best not to do both, although I have seen a few games that mix genres quite well like Shop n Spree (was in the top 10). Fore sure agreed on no.10.
