YOUR BELIEFS ARE YOUR STRATEGY

Summary from the TLDR Founders newsletter

Every founder should write a manifesto. It helps you get clear about what you're building and why it matters. A good manifesto starts with your customers. What are they trying to do? What stands in their way? Then explain how your approach is different. Why did you build things this way? Most importantly, write down what you believe. These beliefs drive your choices about features, markets, and everything else. They're your real strategy. When you finish writing, you'll see you weren't just making words. You were making choices that help you stand out when talking to customers or investors.
