Zoom out. If you understand business models, great. But do you understand human psychology? Go watch some videos longer than 1 minute.

Touché, I stopped giving advice to people, unless they asked or I was involved, because of that book.

The reality is as long as the packaging looks good, the product can be subpar.

There’s always time to make it better, but it’s not a necessity if its profitable.

It’d be nice to have the complete product that performs amazingly in the beginning, but more often than not that feedback loop is necessary to improve it.

It’s an interesting catch 22. If its a good enough product then you don’t need to market it, is true to a degree. If we replace the word market with getting users / testers, then the feedback loop requirement is met & not only will the product improve but it’ll not need excess marketing.

🙏 the reality is that there’s a difference between watching videos, reading books, and taking courses. To truly learn you need to play the game. As he said fail fast. I started at 25, still in the amateurs. But I’m playing.
