Maybe the lesson to take away from this article and the comments here on HN is that there are several paths from A to B..
Some founders are notoriously obsessive and others are much calmer and methodical...
Some might argue that if you could only spend 10 hours a week vs spending 80 and have a successful startup then the obsessive method must be flawed.. But one could also argue that history's greatest figures seem to favor the obsessive.. Einstein, Gandhi, & Beethoven are just a few examples which spring to mind.. All of them brilliant, all of them obsessed. More recent figures would be Steve Jobs, Kubrick, & Philip Glass.
I am obsessed with the project I'm working on. It's just the way I work best. It is not something I strive for just so I can be more like my role models.. As far as I'm concerned I don't have a choice.
