  • Do Something. You know you have to. Why delay?

  • Do Something Small, but Useful. Be sure it’s pertinent and helps to solve the problem.

By Bob Bemer - Father of ASCII text (see also his archived home pageWikipedia entry, and bio from the History of Computing Project).

Bemer’s motto for 50 years is good advice for any startup team.
