You have to save the vision speeches for when the company is winning. When you're not winning, you just have to get momentum back.

What you want to do is innovate on your product and your business model, management structure is not where I would try and innovate.

You can basically change everything in a startup but the market.

Unpopular but right is what you're going for.

Because so few people make an actual long term commitment to what they're building, the ones that do have a huge advantage.

Momentum and growth are the lifeblood of startups. This is probably in the top three secrets of executing well.

If you compromise and hire someone mediocre you will always regret it.
