Most business advice online feels like it was written by a bot in a hoodie. So I asked 100 real founders and mentors one question:
“What do you wish someone told you before you started?”
The answers were sage, funny, and surprisingly consistent. Forget chasing perfection: launch early. Build rhythms that last. Focus like your sanity depends on it. Talk to your customers. Talk to your customers (yes, I said that twice for emphasis).And accept that even when you do everything right, you can still lose (but you’ll lose smarter next time).
What We Get Into:
Why “perfect” is just procrastination in disguise
How to build rhythm before you build burnout
A focus habit that actually compounds
What talking to your customers really fixes
How to lose well, and come back faster
