Are you truly being persistent with your startup, or just being stubborn? In the new age of AI-powered founders and hyper-fast iteration, many entrepreneurs mistake obstinacy for persistence and end up running out of time, money, and morale.Too often we glorify “hustle” and “grit” without understanding when to adapt, pivot, or quit. The misconception that sheer willpower equals success has caused countless startups to fail, not because the idea was bad, but because the founder couldn't tell when to change course.In this episode, Chris and Yaniv dive deep into Paul Graham's classic essay on the difference between persistence and obstinacy. Drawing from decades of startup experience, they unpack why adaptability, “predatory listening,” and goal-directed experimentation are the true drivers of breakthrough success.They explore the five traits that set persistent founders apart (energy, imagination, resilience, good judgment, and focus) and explain how to build these skills into your daily practice as a founder.In this episode, you will:Discover the critical difference between persistence and obstinacy in startup cultureLearn Paul Graham's “boat rudder vs. boat engine” metaphor and why it matters for foundersIdentify the five traits every successful founder must develop to survive and thriveUnderstand how “predatory listening” and adaptability accelerate learning and reduce riskExplore real-world examples (Stripe, Uber) showing how top founders embody these traitsApply practical strategies to know when to double down, pivot, or quit a failing ideaGain a fresh perspective on why resilience and imagination matter more than raw hustleThe Pact Honor the Startup Podcast Pact!

This new era of AI-driven startups has many founders still believing success is about having the perfect product roadmap. The truth, however, is far more counterintuitive.In this episode, Yaniv and Chris dive into timeless lessons from Paul Graham's legendary essay “Startups in 13 Sentences”. Drawing from Graham's wisdom and their own experiences, they break down why co-founders matter more than ideas, why “launch fast” is the golden rule, and why understanding users is harder (and more important) than chasing growth.In this episode, you will:Learn why choosing the right co-founder is the most important decision you'll ever makeUnderstand why launching fast is less about speed and more about learning from real usersDiscover why evolving your idea matters more than defending a perfect planSee how understanding users drives sustainable growth (and why chasing vanity metrics kills startups)Explore why great customer service that 'doesn't scale' is actually a secret weaponUnpack the dangers of measuring the wrong things and how to track what truly mattersFind out why distractions (even profitable ones) are the silent killers of young startupsFor founders serious about building in the AI era, these lessons, though written 16 years ago, are more relevant than ever. Startups succeed not by following conventional wisdom, but by mastering the counterintuitive truths that define Silicon Valley's greatest companies.Read Paul Graham's "Startups in 13 Sentences" here: https://paulgraham.com/13sentences.html The Pact Honor the Startup Podcast Pact!
