why do you want to solve it, why does this problem matter to you, and what's that thing that's gonna find its seed of motivation.

The second thing she says is be commited, be wedded to the problem and not to the process or what you think the solution is today because it will look very different two years from now so be ready especially in the early years to be like very agile and fluid to change with information and leave the purpose and the problem statement as your north star and nothing else and don't be afraid of scrapping what you thought was like a year of work and using new information to build something that's better and you're gonna go through this process of building breaking it down and then building it again.
