Focus is what exactly what you want and avoid all the distractions to obtain it!
Focus, as Steve Jobs said, is about saying no. The only dangerous competitors are focused ones. Ergo there are things that even the most dangerous competitors say no to, and it would be worth thinking explicitly about what those are.

What were some of the things you didn't do at YC that most others might have done?
-
They've filled in many gaps over the years. E.g., back in s07, I would have benefitted hugely from a "startup basics" course as part of YC. And now they have Startup School. You can find gaps in YC's value, but only while assuming that they can't/won't act in the future.
