Every day I wake up I know I’m paying for a subscription. Not Netflix. Not ChatGPT. Not YouTube. A subscription to life. And I get to choose how I spend it. Sit around distracted. Or put in the work and build the life I want.

As you build, get feedback. The only way to do that is to put it out there. Doesn’t matter what stage it’s at. Show people. That’s how you see if you’re on the right track. That’s how you make it better.

It’s Friday and I made a promise to push the course out no matter what stage it is at. Right now it’s a general public version. Only the first three modules are ready. I’m still working on the rest and on pricing. The idea is to tailor it to industry specific cases later. It’s

Imposter syndrome is hitting me right now. A friend brought me onto his customer success project. And I have no clue what I’m doing. I could’ve turned it down. But instead I’m learning fast. Jumping on calls. Watching tape like an NBA player. Now I’m building the strategy

Practicing what I preach. I promised myself I’d get the course out this week. No matter what stage it is at. So here it is. It’s for beginners. A general version for now. Industry specific ones will come later since people are already asking. Feedback is welcome. Course link

Building a business is like Lego. You piece it together your way. Some pieces fit. Some don’t. There isn’t a right or wrong. Only what makes sense to you. And what makes it fun to keep going.

I used to think the logo was the most important thing. I’ve made countless of them. But a logo doesn’t build a business. Getting in front of people does. Share your work. Show up often. That’s what makes it grow.

Got my first signup to the course this morning. No idea who you are. But I appreciate you. Still ironing out the payment flow, so stay tuned. And if anyone’s set up Stripe with Supabase before, let me know. I’ve been stuck on this edge function for hours.

Missed a couple posts today. Been deep in the course. Spent the morning getting payments sorted with Stripe. Then figuring out the stuff that wasn’t making sense. Made progress though. Now it’s just finishing touches before I get back to next week’s content.

I’m not the smartest. I’m not the most technical. I’m not the most creative. What I am good at is asking questions. Getting curious. That’s how I build fast. That’s how I save time on projects.

Had to say no last night. A friend of mine had a housewarming. I’d been working all day on big changes for the course. By the time I finished it was 9:30pm His place was almost an hour away. Sometimes you give things up to build what you want. The right friends understand

There’s more to a squat than I thought. The past few months I’ve been working with my physio on form. Scaps down. Chest in and brace. Rotate the legs out. Sounds weird. But everything lines up. And you avoid injury. Same thing with what you’re building. The question is, are

The hardest part of the last two years hasn’t just been building a network. It’s figuring out how to work efficiently as a solo business owner. Let’s be real. You’re one person. Same 16 hours as everyone else. So I asked questions. Tested things. Learned fast. I’m not afraid

Heading into the last full week of September. I didn’t think I’d get this much done. But I did. Not because I’m more talented. But because I set a goal. And I let AI take some of the weight. That’s how it works when you’re running solo. You use tools that give you time back.

An idea kept to yourself feels safe. No judgment. No feedback. But that safety is the trap. My course only got better when I let people poke holes at it. Feedback helped it grow. Silence would have killed it.
