Whenever you’re starting something new, it helps to begin with hypotheses.
Hypotheses aren’t facts or certainties — just assumptions about how things might play out.
The next task is to test them. Use every conversation to stress-test your idea. Harsh criticism is especially valuable because it reveals weaknesses quickly.
After twenty such conversations, your hypothesis will either collapse or sharpen into a thesis worth acting on.
Then the time for debate is over.
It’s time to ship.
