Step 01 — Your Company

A little context first.

Your stage and situation shape what your gaps mean. A gap at pre-seed means something different than the same gap at Series B.

Basics
Your situation

Step 02 — Area I · Physical Base

Your body & energy inputs.

Rate each statement based on your actual experience over the last 2–4 weeks — not your ideal, and not your best day. 1 = almost never true · 10 = consistently and reliably true.

Who you are as a founder.

Step 06 — Routine Builder

Choose one discipline to work on.

Start with one. Only one. The assessment will show you your biggest gaps — but what matters most is that the area you choose feels relevant and motivating to you right now. You can follow the recommendation or choose differently. Both are valid. A practice you are motivated to do beats the objectively optimal one you won't.
