Don't just show your wins. Share your lessons. Your failures become a guide for others. Your successes show them it's possible. The product is the result. The journey is what matters.

The weirdest side effect of using AI all day? My own spelling and grammar are getting worse. I've basically taught my brain that typos don't matter anymore, because the AI will always understand me. My precision is becoming a casualty of productivity.

My first real day of sales outreach. 9 emails sent. 6 LinkedIn messages sent. 12 DMs sent. The result so far: 1 reply. As a developer, I always believed that if you just get good enough, clients will come to you. The hard lesson I'm learning today: that's a myth. You have to

Look at your to-do list for today. Find the one domino. The one task that, if you push it over, will make all the other tasks either easier or irrelevant. Push that one first.

Let us build our own LLM

I used to build the idea that looks nice, with the technology I am comfortable with. No I build a solution that solves people's pain with the appropriate tool. Never follow your desires, do what people will value, regardless you like or not!

My to-do list for my project tonight: ❌ Add 3 new features. ✅ Simplify one core feature. ✅ Delete 100 lines of old code. ✅ Make one thing clearer. The best code isn't written; it's refined.

Oh, I got an asset!!

Recently, I stopped my work on my project, Meeticule. Sometimes, the smartest move is to quit. If an idea isn't working, you have to be brave enough to leave it and find a better one. Excited for the new journey that I will be documenting soon.

You can hire the best swimming coach in the world. They can teach you the theory of every stroke from the side of the pool for months. But they can't teach you how to swim. The real learning only happens when you jump into the water and struggle for yourself. Some skills are

This is for the ones who are still up, working on their dream. The ones trying to escape a job that drains them. The ones who want to retire their parents. The ones who want to be strong enough to lift others up. I know it feels impossible right now. But keep going. One

You can sell a shovel to a man, and he can dig his own holes. Or you can dig the hole for him, and get paid for the result. One is a scalable product. The other is a high-value service. Know which business you are in.
