Day 27 of building in public every single day Today I literally BUILT something 🏡 (well mostly my friend did) I enjoyed the change of scenery and context. Today also perfectly illustrates a nice side of being a solopreneur. When you work by yourself, you can work as little

Day 29/100 of making a daily video! today: using AI to help us prototype an idea :) (using Claude, Claude Code, and context engineering) With my friend's cat as extra wonderful support 😺 #orakemu #productivityapp #adhdapp #lifeorganization #planner #journaling #product

For those that are curious about the background story of the idea of my app (a "productivity" app with a more psychological approach), I actually wrote this. It's a bit long but it gives the full context! One year ago I finished my PhD in psychology (on repetitive negative

View your life as a game. Go on quests. Create your tribe. Make sure to prepare for rainy days. Know you will face monsters. Know you might get side tracked. That's okay. But you can't do everything at once. Even in a game. So choose wisely how and what you will "level

5 productivity books that are worth your time :) I read a ton of producitivty books over the years. I always felt like I did not have enough time to do everything I wanted. And so I wanted help to make the most of it. Nowadays it's easy to binge watch a ton of productivity

Sometimes writing is how you do the thinking. You cannot expect to have everything thought out and then start writing. Instead, I learned that you need to start writing to clarify your thinking And then you just iterate over and over again until you’re happy And this applies

Building in public requires consistent effort for sometimes little results. One principle that has helped me not give up: "Have high hopes but keep your expectations low". That's how I was able to record/edit/post 63 days in a row and am aiming for 100 days #BuildInPublic

An app that makes you see your life as a role playing game AND that has all the traditional productivity tools you need? Yes, it's possible, and that's what I am making with Orakemu :) And so many more features are planned. - Customized avatars - Multiplayer/coop features -

Day 74 of building a gamified daily planner in public 📈 879 registered users 💰 110$ MRR (got two new yearly subscription and one new weekly subscription in the last week 🥳) I woke up early and made some good progress. I'm also showing what my next priorities are.

Did I cook ?! 🔥 New UI for adding items in my daily planner. Honestly this UI gives me so much joy. The buttons have beautiful micro interactions that took me SO much time but are worth it.

The new OpenAI Codex coding model is impressive 🤯 ! I tried it out with a full feature PRD. It coded for 1 hour straight and then it simply... worked.

It's usually best to avoid comparing yourself to others. However, when you have a business, when you make an app and try to make a living from it, comparison is a must. You need to offer something different, better, or unique to stand out from the crowd of existing apps. So
