Ayush 🙏

4 years since I quit my Job to make a living on the internet Here’s every project I’ve tried so far

4 years since I quit my job to go solo.

Here's every project I've tried (and mostly failed at) since then:

superframeworks.com/blog/four-ye...

fair..

It is easier to push a moving object than a still one..

Whatever your goal is..

Get moving, take some action, build momentum..

yea its powerful..
we do 2 45 min deep work sessions with a 10 minute break in between to chat.. it works great..

Best way to kick off my day - 2 hour coworking with indie friends ❤️

True.. well said!

haha brilliant!

And all of productivity boils down to just 2 things - intention and reflection

Every productivity book talks about this - Atomic Habits, Slow Productivity, GTD or anything else..

Fundamentally - all of them point to the same thing -

Set intentions, do shit, then reflect!

Repeat 🔃

But if you can't execute your essential business tasks efficiently (and for a long period of time) then you're not going to make it.

So personal productivity is paramount!

Wrote a rant.. for all my unproductive founder friends 😅

Productivity is the first problem every founder needs to solve.

You can find amazing ideas, write great code, use every new AI tool in the market.

Long term plans invite long term members.

But people have told me that they would like shorter plans to try out the community first, before committing long term.

Which makes sense.

So giving quarterly memberships a shot now.

Lets see how it goes 🤞

Introduced quarterly pricing for my community.

Only had 6 month, annual and lifetime passes before this.

I never liked short term members.

Folks who just come in, make a ton of noise, do a lot of self promo, and leave without adding much value.

We even had 2 amazing indie film makers with us this time..

So grateful that they captured our cozy meetup and made this beautiful after movie to celebrate it 🙏

Thanks everyone who joined..

Until next time 👋

Celebrate the wins, learn from the losses, play some games, and have a good time overall.

Our little group grew to almost 30 people this time during our last meetup

So back in December 2023, I started hosting these 2-3 day meetups for my founder friends across India.

We meet every 6 months, share what we've learned in our businesses, what's working, what's not working.

Its lonely being an entrepreneur.

Your problems, your challenges, your journey are so different from rest of society.

Only fellow entrepreneurs can truly understand what you're going through.

Understand user intent
Figure out the demand for information
Become the human curated supply of that information

Do the thing that AI can't go - bring taste to the content.

AI may help you generate hundreds of articles in minutes, but it will end up hurting your brand in the long term.

Don't be penny wise, pound foolish

The long term winning bet is to actually write useful content manually with AI assistance for research, editing, clean up etc.

I'm not convinced with any of the AI SEO tools out there..

They produce substandard content which is useless to humans.

Any real person reading an AI generated article will hate it and go away from your website.

fat loss is long term.. mental benefits that you can feel are a couple of days.. but physical benefits are long term..

ohh interesting.. didn't realize coffee would be a strain.. will try and skip it next time... thanks

yea thats what i've been doing..

this is not cold turkey..

i worked up to 36 hours over a few months..

Its a 0 calorie beverage.. I could have had some herbal teas as well but I don't like them as much..
but no sugar, no milk and no calories in any other form..

And we're back..

Sunday = learning to code with @marclou.bsky.social

Today's topics -

- Intro to React
- Tailwind CSS

This gets me to around 30% of the course I think.

2 or 3 more Sundays I should be able to finish the course and start shipping micro apps

LFG 🚀
