  • So much push to scale up, fire yourself, etc. etc.

  • I subscribe to the concept that a small company is not just a smaller version of a large company. It actually requires different approaches. Steve Blank

  • Trust gut

  • Don't be afraid to do real work

  • Don't be afraid to go backwards in steps
