Listen Later

Most early-stage founders get trapped in the chaos of endless tasks, there's always too much to do and not enough time. We go through the last 4 episodes to see what how the best founders prioritize. We also see why you can raise millions without real traction but can’t fake product-market fit, how positioning yourself for luck is as important as having a plan, why slow initial growth might be your secret weapon, and how true passion gives you staying power. 

Why You Should Listen

  • How to prioritize ruthlessly—focus is about saying no.
  • Why you can't game product-market fit.
  • Turning random luck into edge.
  • When slow growth still wins
  • Why true founder-market fit keeps you in the game longer.
