Most people look for the “magic” / shortcut thing that makes growth easy when in reality the vast majority of successful startups went through a really manual slog for a long time.

"There are no shortcuts" feels conflicting with "do things that don't scale". While I agree with both sentiments, how do you leverage these philosophies in making decisions?

This was in the context of founding something, but in my experience in Silicon Valley, few if any of the most talented and ambitious and most importantly the best results came from a super wealthy background.
