choosy and selective and intelligent around what you let take your attention away from the company you're trying to build because it's super easy right now with all of this thrash going on to lose sight of what's really important for your startup.
Do you have the right people?
Is your product gonna face headwinds that you haven't anticipated?
Will it get acceptance in the market?
Is someone not related to you willing to pay you money for the thing you're building at some point?
Right.

This other stuff, it's while important, I just feel like it has the potential to continue being massively distracting.
Right.
Be ready.
Be ready.
Like, don't be the founder that doesn't have their act together because it's too competitive right now, unless you are one of these select few deals that are in the right place at the right time with the right people and are having money thrown at you.

Right.
Got it.
Always be raising.
