"Fail fast, pivot fast" doesn't make sense.
Sometimes the product needs time to mature.
Other times the marketing does.
Neither can happen if you try to be fast for the heck of it.

If failures and rejections are not encouraging you to try harder, or smarter, you might be in the wrong game.
You're better off pursuing something that sparks your "inner flame" regardless of outcomes.
Keep trying new things till you find that.

If AI is hurting your SEO, ask yourself:
1. Is your content easy to summarize?
2. Do your target users prefer quick answers?
3. Is a human expert angle not essential?
If it’s 3x yes, it’s time to rethink your content strategy!

I gave in.

But I already bought!!
Turns out, ads don't really care about selling, they only care about learning.

Using AI to replace junior devs wouldn't ease the miscommunication headache.
I still struggle to clearly explain what I want to an LLM.
It frequently misinterprets, leading to iterations that take three times longer than writing the original prompt.

That unpromising engineer you didn't hire (who would later go on to destroy your database)...
Those taxes you paid just on time (which would have attracted 3x penalty)...
We only think about profits gained.
Think about losses averted, and life isn't so bad.

Social media uses "hooks" as psychological tricks to engage you without you necessarily desiring to.
It's tiring to dive in yet another blog/tweet/reel and come back out with nothing.
We are heading towards emotional fatigue and hook saturation soon...

A good UI doesn't matter.
But a bad one certainly does.
Subliminally, it conveys to a user that you don't care. Then why should they?

It's simple:
Generate a useful output. Big or small, but something you are proud of.
Then do it everyday.

I figured working on 2 projects parallely is a great idea:
1) you can focus on one while the other awaits customer reactions
2) you don't solve for scaling before you really should
Prevents unhealthy attachment and protects focus.
Try it.
