It’s really incredible how YouTube shapes the zeitgeist today. Hype cycles and their “movements” should be avoided like the plague.

At the end of the day if you want to gamble, buy a lottery ticket, then at least you are being honest with yourself.

It takes tremendous effort launching products that have integrity, and its something that should be respected, the journey is what its all about.

Stating with problems actually belonging to B2B customers that they have tried and failed to solve and are willing to pay for good a long way instead of being a solution in search of a problem.

Being a solution in search of a problem is being everything on one hypothesis of what you built being correct instead of problem based thinking that would line up multiple hypotheses to then select one to start with.

Startups are a learning engine and most don’t get setup to learn and iterate based on customer feedback.
