A startup can use the concept of 'saying no' from 'The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck' to grow by applying it to their decision-making process.

It's easy to just say yes in most situations. But all those "yeses" can become a habit that prevents someone from saying no to the things that don't matter. A person who can't say no to faulty alternatives is living a life with no boundaries. People with solid boundaries aren't afraid of conflict or getting their feelings hurt. When someone can't say no, they often find themselves caught up in the habit of trying to say what someone else wants to hear. This desire to always go along doesn't help relationships; it weakens them because without conflict there is no real trust. Don't be a "yes man." Honesty is far more important than a brief moment of good feelings.
