Hello y’all :D

Haven’t been posting here for almost a year.
I think I need to be more active here!

So what happened while I was offline:
- built 2 SaaS projects that made some money
- created a portfolio of my projects
- started building an app for dog owners!
- and much, much more!

Just posting and commenting isn’t enough to build a personal brand. You have to:
- Provide value
- Engage with others
- Show up every day

Today I:
- Slept for 8 hours
- Walked for 3 hours
- Implemented a new calendar view feature in my time tracking app
- Made dinner for me and my wife
- Got some rest

Life is good

Just started working on something new...
I'm building an app for dog owners - drop a comment if you have a dog or any other pet :)
#pet #pets #dog #dogwalk #nature #husky #sport

Today:
- Slept for 8 hours
- Took a long walk with my dog
- Brought breakfast to bed for my wife
- Enjoying some tea
- Deep work

happy life🌞

Building in 2025 with AI feels like the early .com era all over again.
Opportunities are everywhere. If you’re not building something right now - you’re seriously missing the wave.

Yesterday, I took a day off - no phone, no PC, just me, my wife and our dog.
It’s okay to take a break; you don’t have to work 24/7. You should also do meaningful things.

Damn, there's no better feeling than a morning walk - early sun, birds, a bit cold. Those things are so fking special.

The main 3 things I learned in the last 2 months just blew my mind. I knew them, but for some reason, I wasn’t doing them.

🚫 Don’t build in silence – you need traffic.
🚫 Don’t just build because it looks cool to you – use data.
🚫 Join communities – share your ideas, thoughts, talk, write.

Simple principles for cold emails:

✅ One clear goal
✅ Sound human
✅ Personalize
✅ Keep it short
✅ Show credibility (past wins)
✅ Solve their problem
✅ Provide a clear next step (e.g., 'Reply if interested')

Quick reminder for those feeling guilty about not hustling all day:

1️⃣ Hustle culture is toxic for your mind & body.
2️⃣ Deep work (2-4 hrs) > grinding 12+ hrs.
3️⃣ Working smart beats working nonstop.

You don’t need to grind 24/7 to succeed. Focus on what matters.

#deepwork #business #work

The more I dive into the indie hackers community, the more I see people glorifying hustle culture

1. Hustle culture is toxic for your physical and mental health.
2. It’s better to do deep work for 2-4 hours a day.
3. Working more ≠ success. You have to work smart.

#work #mentalhealth #health

Man, my head always feels so fresh after walking my dog. Walking in nature gives me a lot of energy.

Quick tip for you: Don’t forget to rest, you don’t need to hustle 24/7
#relax #deepwork #dogs #nature #working

Yeah, 2025 is wild for creating and shipping. I think there’s never been a better time than now!

Damn, nice results! Keep going, Macr! 💪

Just finished my workout! 💪
To all my fellow indie hackers - don’t forget to move your body and stay hydrated.
A healthy mind needs a healthy body!

#workout #indiehackers #startup

Am I the only one tired of seeing those ‘perfect’ morning routines?
A few years ago, I chased them too. Now, I just stick to what works for me:
✅8 hrs of sleep
✅2-4 hrs of deep work
✅Time blocking

Most importantly I don’t force myself into strict hours - I just do stuff ;)

My March Results 📊

1. Cloudie – 40+ users, ~6 daily active (still free)
2. FreeInvoices – 500+ visits, ~30 daily active (completely free)

Super happy with these results, especially since both projects launched in March!

If you think hustle = success, you’re dead wrong. Hustle only gives you:

1. Burnout & mental health issues
2. Decline in productivity
3. Poor work-life balance

Grinding 24/7 doesn’t make you a winner - it just leaves you with fucked up mental health.

#mentalhealth #work #hustle

Looking back, it’s kinda funny, but I used to think hustle was the key to success.

What did hustle actually give me?
1. Panic attacks
2. Anxiety
3. Stress
If you think working like crazy will make you successful, think again. You’ll just end up with fucked up mental health.

SEO is Dead for Online Businesses

1. AI-generated content floods search results
2. Users prefer AI tools like ChatGPT over Google
3. Google prioritizes AI, hurting traditional SEO

What works now? 👇

1. Build a brand
2. Leverage social & YouTube
3. Learn from founders

#startup #business #marketing

After 3 years of building businesses and almost 1 year of working on my own, I started realizing my mistakes.

1. You need traffic. It doesn’t matter how good your app is
2. To get traffic, you either spend on ads or build your personal brand
3. TAKE SMALL STEPS EVERY SINGLE DAY

Thanks! I changed it, but with the green color. You can check it out - freeinvoices.online

After failing a few times, I’ve learned this:
1. Validate your idea first.
2. Think about marketing - how and where will you reach your audience?
3. If your SaaS is small, try niching down.
4. Don’t believe in overnight success.
5. Consistency is key

I started freeinvoices.online just to solve my own invoicing problem, but here I am: bought a domain, built a landing page and made it completely free for everyone.
Now, I’m getting ideas to improve it even further... and who knows, maybe introduce a pricing plan someday?
#buildinpublic #startup

Just updated my landing page. What do you think of it? :)

You know what’s cooler than grinding 16 hours a day? Working smarter, taking breaks, and building something people actually want to pay for.
No one cares about your ‘grind’ if you’re still broke.
#productivity #hustle #indiehackers

You can hustle all you want, but if you’re building something nobody cares about, it’s just glorified busy work.
Solve real problems, not imaginary ones ;)

Feeling stuck? Do ONE thing to move forward today. Big goals are just a collection of tiny steps. Start stepping.
