Nobody cares about features or fancy design, you just need to solve (big) problems with easy solutions.

To not think that you can't do something because that will make that fear a reality. Not knowing something is impossible is what makes it possible.

Hey, younger me! Remember, building products is like baking a cake - start with a solid recipe (user research), carefully mix in the right ingredients (features), and don't forget the icing on top (user experience)!
