Episode notes
Prioritize Skill-Building Early
- Invest in your skills first by learning the core functions your business needs: marketing, sales, delivery, finance.
- Solve constraints in sequence: get customers, learn sales, then improve the product as you go.
Pay For Proximity To People
- Invest in your network by paying for access to communities and people who can shortcut your learning.
- Proximity to the right people can solve problems quickly and provide leverage you can't get alone.
Use Mentors To Avoid Known Pitfalls
- Hire coaches or mentors to guide you around pitfalls and choose better paths than trial-and-error.
- Guidance accelerates progress by preventing known mistakes and showing higher-probability routes to success.
