> how should I be spending my time?

Good question

Good answer but the game is a bit more complex. It's good to have a KPI driven behavior but it depends also on the stage and thus, KPIs can change quickly. Sometimes you should find best hires, sometimes the best angels and VCs and sometimes customers or reach.

Not really sure about this thing. I like your thought behind it (that before implementing an idea check if it's wanted and build time is in relation to the potential market size) but I don't know if the formula is a good way to communicate this definitely good idea--it's a bit too abstract/cumbersome.
