Principles
-
Bias toward shipping.
If something can be shared in a week, don’t let it sit for a month. Small shipped projects beat big unfinished ideas.
-
Start from the user, not the feature.
Understand the person — their pain, workflow, and constraints — before designing product or recommending investments.
-
Write to think.
When confused, write. Clear writing forces clearer thinking and better decisions.
-
Long-term games, long-term people.
Careers compound. Prefer collaborators you can imagine working with for a decade.
-
Data-informed, not data-paralysed.
Numbers should sharpen judgement, not replace it; use qualitative feedback when sample sizes are small.
