How the Best Startups Really Begin — YC Office Hours

In this episode of Y Combinator's Office Hours, a rotating cast of YC group partners pulls back the curtain on how legendary startups actually began.

The through-line: greatness comes not from a magical origin but from tens of thousands of decisions, a bias for action, obstinate conviction, clear and honest communication, and the willingness to pivot until you build something people want.
