Building a product means saying no to your own desires and prioritizing customer needs instead.
Even if you are the customer of your product, you won’t get too far if you just build for yourself.

Always make sure that customer needs come first.

If you don’t know what they need, go find out. If you talked to them and still don’t know, ask different questions.
When you don’t know what customers need, you’ll likely end up building the wrong thing.

If you prefer to build, then build fast and get something (anything!) in people’s hands.

Then, find out everything you possibly can about what they really think. What they love and hate.
The faster you can ship product, the faster you’ll learn.

Start by stating what you’re trying to learn before you ship.

Then figure out the fastest path to learn.

Typically you’ll ship a smaller chunk than you initially thought to achieve the same goal.
