Most startups don't fail because they can't build a product. Most startups fail because they can't get traction. Startup advice tends to be a lot of platitudes repackaged with new buzzwords, but Traction is something else entirely. As Gabriel Weinberg and Justin Mares learned from their own experiences, building a successful company is hard. For every startup that grows to the point where it can go public or be profitably acquired, hundreds of others sputter and die.

They say you shouldn't ask your mom whether your business is a good idea, because she loves you and will lie to you. This is technically true, but it misses the point. You shouldn't ask anyone if your business is a good idea. It's a bad question, and everyone will lie to you at least a little. As a matter of fact, it's not their responsibility to tell you the truth. It's your responsibility to find it, and it's worth doing right.

all the right things, no fluff
Excellent. everything actionable, no endless repeating like some nonfiction books can be, and tons of super important topics that few seem to talk about (burnout vs balance, acknowledgements of a Dev's reflex mindset and shifts to make, selling vs not ..) and focusing on the right things to pay attention to without getting overwhelmed.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
