I’ve learned a lot about giving advice over the past 5 years at YC (still more to learn). When I started I had a very formulaic / tactical view of how startups succeed. Over time and after seeing over 1000 startups go through YC that has changed.
It takes me an annoyingly long time to get into a state of mind where I can do deep work (not just emails and ad box stuff). What are some tricks to shorten that time?
