In this chapter, the hosts introduce the series on building an internal strategy for working on a startup idea while having a job. They discuss the importance of having a clear strategy and its three counterintuitive benefits, along with highlighting the challenges faced by entrepreneurs in determining the most direct path to building their desired business and avoiding decision paralysis.

Today, we'll kick off a series that'll help people with jobs and startup ideas build an internal system that'll help them track progress and build momentum. Too many founders have no strategy or measurement system around how they pursue and test an idea - this series will help you do it.

In part 1, we go through what a strategy should look like and the three counterintuitive benefits to creating one.
