Sometimes you just need a win

tl;dr: In any shape or form that might be for you. You sometimes just need it.
Okay, so this is the first post not talking (necessarily) about tech
In the last few months, I’ve been working consistently on a few projects of mine while sunsetting others that their time was due. On these projects, I’ve been working pretty much by myself as I had to part ways with my co-founder as his interests weren’t truthfully aligned with mine.
That’s alright, no hard feelings, but it did put a dent on my momentum as I had to go back to square one and figure things out by myself.
AI has been a great companion in this journey, I must admit! But the feeling of sharing things with others, collecting feedback, spending hours on a project and either shipping it or admitting it was a day’s distraction; that feeling is amazing.
Enter X/Twitter
So I decided to try and build in public, share my journey and see what happens really. I’m a huge consumer of YouTube and Twitter and I’ve been utterly inspired by people here and there.
It’s a well known fact that to build in public is to expose your products, which can be daunting. To talk to no one in the beginning. To feel unseen. Unheard.
And that’s why, you someimtes just need a win. Not in the form of a finished product, a milestone MRR amount, a viral tweet. No. Rather a win like talking to someone new, getting a great coffee. Eating your favorite dish.
In any form you might consider it a win, you need it and ought to take it. It is important you do so.
To anyone reading this that follows me on X, thank you for engaging with me in a human way, sharing thoughts, products, ideas. If you’re reading this and don’t know me, please come by and say hi! I’d love that.
