So this is just my experience and absolutely not some advice. Building and talking to customers takes all my time. I stoped attending meetups and going to events if I don't have something concrete to show or to talk about. A network is a very valuable asset, but networking looks like a productive activity where in reality it is a time and energy trap. I wish I spent more time being social for my own sake but honestly I just don't have the time to do it all especially since I don't have someone to share the work burden. So yeah I just live like a monk and I am mostly fine with that otherwise I would look for a cofounder. This is in my opinion what being early stage look like, a relevant network will grow with the business.
