A few ideas from the sheet
The PDF is meant to be kept close and revisited. It compresses the models enough to make them memorable, while still pointing you back to the original talk when an idea deserves more attention.

Time is usually the first capital
Before raising money or quitting, the useful question is where your 168 hours are actually going.
Cloning is a learning system
Borrowing proven patterns is not a shortcut around thinking; it is often the fastest way into better judgment.
