Excellent! Two quick clarifications on what I mean by "just go goddamn start it".

1. For a majority of contemporary companies, the primary risk is not technical, but market driven. In other words, your biggest problem isn't figuring out how to build the solution; it's figuring out what the solution should be in the first place. A ton of progress can be made on this front without a single line of code. 2. A startup is beset with an unceasing torrent of problems. You need a programmer for your MVP, true; but what happens when you need to start marketing? Do you go out and try to recruit an all star marketer? But wait we need sales as well - how many people do you want to go out and find? I don't mean to say that you need to be able to do everything, but figuring it out is a crucial skill to have as a founder, and this is one of the times you'll be practicing it.

Good luck!
