crossroads

Founders

Focus is very challenging, because it involves:

- making hard decisions (eg, deprecating features you really love when it’s clear they aren’t working)
- saying no & disappointing your possibly passionate users
- not working on [shiny new thing] when it’s so much more interesting than [grindy thing to get to pmf]
- deliberately ignoring [thing on fire] because it’s only slightly important and not extremely important 

100% agree with Dan here - startups have a fixed number of shots on goal before they die. 

Need to always be aggressively prioritizing & focusing on what will get you closer to pmf.
