Once you've got a handle on that, "Ready, Fire, Aim" by Michael Masterson talks about the value of moving quickly, selling quickly, and figuring out the finer details as you're moving along. This was invaluable for me, since I used to want to have everything pretty much perfect before moving.
Moral of the story, its way important to start selling even before You write a line of code!. Sounds totally non-intuitive but without actual sales, how will Your MVP be funded.
It had a big impact on me in the early days and had me thinking about minimal viable products (and businesses) before that was a thing of its own.
This book helped me a lot, to know what need to prioritize for my business
