to Yourself1
Data? Lean Startup?

becomes increasingly hard to lie,
especially to yourself.
Instincts are experiments.
Data is proof.

Great food and a loyal, but very small
customer base. Maybe a bad location.
“The only game in town.” Or a product
customers need but don’t want.
OK, something is wrong here. You
know that.
