i’m sorry, but this gonna hurt, even for me… as indiehackers, why are we following these big boys with $100-500Ks and even the million dolla MRR group? i can’t even get a $500 revenue, let alone MRR?! and then you’re saying you have imposter syndrome and anxiety? you're comparing yourself with them, that's why. and 'oh my gosh — why didnt i think of that? i should get 50k easily in one month, if i follow his steps,' says chenelle-leveller-postman groupie. seriously? 🤷‍♂️ shouldn’t we follow someone who's at least two, three steps ahead of us, not those million years ahead. good luck in catching up, dude. if i keep on doing this, i might be 80yo when i get my first $500 MRR.😅 // rants OFF✌️

We're moving to a new country next year. And one thing we're thinking of getting is the Nintendo Switch🎮. Funny, after many years of not gaming (my last console was PS2, yeah that ancient🤭), we've come to that decision. But why? The main reason is the long winter❄️.

So our stuff has finally arrived this morning after 3.5 months. Will continue unpacking tomorrow. Still a few more boxes to go. Goodnight!😪

I've been doing stuff without the help of AI lately. But that doesn't mean I don't need it. I just need to have my own thoughts. It helps to give some clarity. I don't need AI to draw these stickmen. Just pen and paper.

I’m struggling to do any work these past weeks. I think I might be experiencing burnout. What would you do to overcome this? What I did: Take a break✅ Try a new hobby✅ But it doesn't feel satisfying. What else can I do?

When you’re giving advice about how to do marketing as an introvert, you’d probably say, “Yes, it is so hard, but you gotta do what you gotta do.”🤣 It is hard for everyone. It will be harder for an introvert who doesn’t want to at least try. I am that f***ing introvert! I…

Go out and smell the flowers!💐 Unless you're allergic, stay away from it!🤧

Came across this in my Google Photos, “today 8 years ago”. I was like “Eh? When did I...” Then it hit me. I was in a non-profit group for "9to5 workers" when this happened. It was my first attempt at stepping out of my comfort zone. A bittersweet memory.

Technical debt. I heard this term before, but I never really understood it, until today. I’m helping a friend who just bought a small SaaS business in KL.🇲🇾 And wow, the tech is so dated, and so many confusing parts. He said a few freelancers suggested rebuilding from scratch, which will cost more.💸 What a way to start my “new” role.😅

Hey folks, random thought while tinkering with code... Why are we all obsessed with building the next big SaaS? Don't get me wrong, recurring revenue is cool. But what if we're overlooking something? I'm seeing small business owners and entrepreneurs picking up tech skills not…

I'm feeling lost. Didn't do any kind of (real) work for almost 5 months. Was too busy with RL stuff, and the big move. Now I'm sort of settled (a bit), I don't know what to do lol.

Is a boilerplate an MVP?🤔 What’s an MVP, really? We know it’s a Minimum Viable Product—but what counts as 'minimum'? MVPs are about avoiding over-engineering and focusing on selling or validating the idea. The faster we validate, the sooner we move on. So, should a boilerplate be your MVP? Well, it depends. If it’s your own, sure. But if you bought it off the shelf? Probably not. You’ll waste time learning the codebase and instructions when you could be validating. A boilerplate works better as a beta—a preview for users to sign up, log in, and see what’s coming. But remember, you’ve got to move beyond that 'boilerplate' stage. Otherwise, it’s just a half-baked product—and nobody wants that. I didn't know what boilerplate was until someone asked me to make one out of my AstroNotion project.😆

2023 in reviews! Maintained my weekly reviews for the 2nd year in a row.🥂 Realized the tags became redundant after a while.🤷🏻‍♂️ So, going to add text to the “Week #” for the next reviews in 2024.👍🏼

Those who have productized their services, how is it now compared to before? Asking for a friend.

Hey folks, What’s the name of the video messaging tool that you can record a short quick update/discussion and send back & forth with your team, etc? Somebody tweeted about it. Was probably top on PH. But that was like 1-2+ years ago?🤷🏻

We have finally completed our move to... . . . Kazakhstan!🇰🇿 I have updated my NOW page with more information. Link is in my profile. Now it's time for house and school hunting!🏹
