How to find an idea for a product: If you keep solving the same problem over and over, in your own life, productize the solution.

My brain has two modes: “I can fix this in 5 minutes.” “Let me rebuild my entire system from scratch to avoid doing it.” And I kid you not There is no in between.

Ah yes a pie chart of where my money goes every month

Big distinction I made this week: The difference between the front end dashboard of a system. And the automation that runs it. Like if I have a content system, but also a make scenario that auto schedules things for me. That should be documented.

My job isn’t to build complex client systems. It’s to build the smallest possible system that solves the entire problem. Simplicity wins more clients than cleverness

You know how people need Second Brains? Well businesses need them too. One "Source of truth" And that's exactly what I build with Notion workspaces. My favorite tool to do so.

“Workaholic” is definitely a term made up by someone who was too scared to follow their dream.

Ah yes documentation on this beautiful Friday night. An absolute rager

Did I need a new MacBook Pro m4 pro for notion and google tabs? No. Did I need the extra 48GB of ram or 2 TB of storage or the nano textured screen(ok that part is nice af)? Again, no. And Anker you gotta stop making stuff because I’m just gonna keep buying it.

In phoenix for a couple weeks. Let’s connect!!

Incredible

A stranger asked: “Hey do you guys want this photo of you?” Yes I do, Alonzo, thank you very much. Phoenix is gorgeous

Being able to just leave and go where you want without asking for permission is freedom. No boss is gonna tell me we gotta come in Saturday I’ll tell myself that and do it anyway lol

All because I was sick of being an Amazon fulfillment warehouse employee. So I pushed some buttons on my computer. Every single day, without stopping. So can you, internet money is everywhere.

There is more power in deleting a task than there is in doing it just as a distraction. Most of the time we know what we need to do. That thing in your brain that gnaws at you. That thing, you just have to do it. Don't fill your calendar with pointless tasks just to make

Back in Milwaukee for a moment The best part of going to AZ for a month was not having to asking anyone to “take off”

The biggest issue I see in all my client operations boils down to the same thing: Definitions. It all starts with defining the use cases of processes, SOPs, systems, and everything in between. But if you don't define it, You cannot optimize it.

Quiet little weekend getaway.

My most recent obsession...

I just had the Notion AI agent create a complex 24 database setup for a massive project with a mega prompt. Probably would have at least taken me 5-6 hours. Now done in minutes.
