I think this was a productive discussion three years ago.
I didn't write my side of it as linkbait, and I don't think the DHH did either.
the truth is we are both right.... you can do a lifestyle business or you can go all in. my style is all in and as fast as possible.
other folks like slow and steady.
sometimes life deals you cards that dictate your approach (i.e. yo have a kids, your dad gets cancer and the Panda update cuts half your traffic... all in the same year).
it's true that some folks work 100 hours a week and get less done than folks who work 40.
it's true that there are folks who work 100 hours and get 2x as much done as someone who works 50.
the fact is, you have to do what is right for you and your goals. me? i love to build shit... and i do it hard and fast with a lot of mistakes and passion.
