The Lean Cycle
When you look at the six elements of the Lean Cycle, you may notice that
Build-Measure-Learn are three verbs (what you need to do) and that
Product-Data-Ideas are three artifacts that result from those verb

have to do and Product, Data and Ideas being the three outcomes you will
get as a result
