    Oh man. He just said something that spoke to me on a very seriously key. To build an organization ahead of where it's at. Precisely what I've been doing for the last year. I've spent my time proving the concept, I've formed the vision of what this business will look like now I'm building it as it should be. As he said what would it look like if it were serving the market. Handle the big details now then I'll get to the finite stuff later. Great video so far!

What second time, previously successful founders do is very different from what a first time founder should do. Most of the information available from YC is nearly exclusively the opposite from this advice, which is to build an imperfect product and then continually iterate toward the customer's needs. Which is actually what Patrick started off doing as per the beginning of the video.
