There will come a time where you need to have a hard talk with your business partner. They could be messing up, you could be messing up. You'll need to be able to address this for the health of your business, and if you are unwilling to have this conversation because of the friendship, it can really hurt the business. If you have the kind of relationship where you can and do constructively...

It's easy to fool yourself into thinking you have good product market fit, but you need to treat it as scientifically as you can manage. Run the experiments, get the data, listen to the data, react to the data.

Super important. If you don't have a strong personal network, make a point of finding a co-founder or early advisor/investor who does.
How important is having a strong network in the startup world?

Trees and vines being planting are often dying before they get established, and big old trees sometimes fall over and break things. Also agriculture needs to be more efficient with water, fertilizer, and pesticide use.

Build a list of names (LLMs are a good way to build a list), then run a process of elimination. Check trademarks, domain name availability, and foreign languages for weird and off-putting meanings. Then try to grade on how much you love it, memorability, what it evokes, whether it rolls off the tongue. Sleep on it. Decide your criteria are probably wrong and pick the one you like the most...
How did you come up with the name for your startup?

Oh man, I want the answer here for books. I have dozens of series that have had new installments published, and yet I always end up finishing my current book and searching vainly for the next thing to read. I'm amazed at how bad digital booksellers are about handling series.
Whats your best app for tracking backlogs of movies, games, books, etc.

1) Recoginize it's a real hit to your effectiveness and replan accordingly.
2) Pull in actions I can close quickly with minimal thinking.
3) If I'm badly affected, push out things I can't afford to mess up.
4) Get help from my team.
5) Squeeze in a post-prandial nap.
Let's say you had a bad sleep. How do you manage your next day at work?

I don't know but I know I loved my Legos (and Mechano and Lincoln Logs and anything that let me build things.)
When you were little, what did you want to be when you grew up?

It must be viable, otherwise my answer shifts. But if that's the case, it can be great if your customers know what you're doing and it's done in good faith. Pay attention to their feedback and react to it with vigor and exceed their expectations for support.
Is it okay to launch a product before all the features are ready?
