Elon would tell you to find the bottleneck and attack it relentlessly. What @ZachBDell learned from working with people who worked closely with Elon: “I've learned a lot of this from Antonio Gracias who's on my board and has worked very closely with Elon for decades. Every conversation with Antonio was the same: "Hey Antonio how's it going? "Zach what's your constraint? What's the constraint of the business? And I would just answer the question and that's all we would talk about. What's the constraint? What's the constraint? What's the constraint? Let's just focus all of our time and energy on that. It forces you to focus on the uncomfortable thing. We need to be constantly asking what is constraining us towards our mission? Let's just focus on that. It's incredibly clarifying and uncomfortable. The natural tendency is to talk about all the different things that are going on and all the different opportunities available to you. And the hard thing is to focus on the most important thing, the constraint in-between you and your goal. What constraints can we relieve? That’s really the only thing that matters and all the other stuff is just noise.”
