🚨 Big news 🚨
Tomorrow I’m quitting my job to go all-in on entrepreneurship.
I’m 31, a dad of 2, and my wife's also an entrepreneur. Yeah, it’s a risky bet.
But the truth is: staying at my job, doing something I don't love, feels like the bigger risk.

Consistency has been my biggest challenge on Bluesky recently.
Relying on motivation alone gives an initial spark but after a while it phases out.
To fix this, I’m working on building a system that ensures daily presence but mostly adding value.

Courses are mostly aspirational purchases that end up collecting dust.
The business model for online courses is undeniably solid, but I often question the actual value they provide.
The majority of buyers never even finish them.
