Part Two · Shooting Hoops in an Empty Gym

What I Took From This

• An empty gym is a gift. The early days, when no one is watching, are where you find your voice.
• Shipping consistently doesn’t guarantee growth, and growth isn’t the only reason to ship.
• Writing is a way to figure things out, not just a way to report what you already know.
• Subscriber counts are waves. Watch them, but don’t let them decide whether you keep going.
• From 0 to 100 is always the hardest stretch. After that, it’s mostly momentum.
• Trust is the scarcest resource you have. Don’t trade it for a faster number.
