2/ built something before asking for money
3/ always shipping, always learning something new
4/ can go deep on the tech
5/ zero interest in playing founder
6/ talks to users every single week
7/ tries weird marketing channels others ignore
8/ actually cares about the problem, not the title
9/ owns every failure, blames nothing
10/ has a graveyard of side projects
11/ ideas never stop coming
12/ knows every number without checking
13/ ignores hype, follows what's true
14/ tells a story that makes hires, investors and customers say yes
15/ explains the whole company in one sentence
