If you’re starting up for the first time a simple advice - be a content creator first.

Grow your twitter profile, blog, podcast, quora etc on a consistent basis and become very good at it.

Nothing else will teach you the principles of creation, hustle and growth like it does.
Just the way going to an IIT / IIM gives you an edge in this ecosystem when it comes to fundraising, networking etc.

Content Creation and being good at it gives you a similar or actually stronger edge.
But know when to stop. Know when to stop being one and to completely focus on the business.

It’s very difficult to take a step back once you get addicted to the likes and upvotes. But remember - you became a content creator to learn. And now you have to move on.
