As a content creator I used to think being consistent with posting was the most important thing. Now that I’m trying to build a growth SaaS, I see how different the "one hard thing" is at each stage. Validation before scaling is the one that really caught my attention here.
This is the question that separates busywork from real progress.
The answer isn’t universal, it’s situational. If you’re pre launch, your priority might be validating your offer with one real conversation. If you’re post launch but stuck, it might be analyzing why leads aren’t converting.
The key is identifying the one lever that unlocks everything else today, not just the task that feels urgent. Clarity beats caffeine every time.

Yes indeed a lot of creators forget validation.
Sometimes we get too caught up in creating our own version of the product.

That headline, such a good question to ask myself daily. I try doing a self analysis like that often
It’s very important to identify and plan ahead. We do not have forever.
