“#1 Be healthy. Are startups all about pulling all nighters and eating ramen noodles? Steve Jobs wasn’t like that in his early days, Metcalfe argues. You need to be healthy. “Don’t buy into this bullshit that you need to drive yourself into the ground,” he said. “You should sleep eight hours a day.

This is pretty mesmerizing, I really like it. I love that you can see the ghosts of the animators in some shots, reminding you of how much work this takes.
