Hey #buildinpublic

just came across Kevon Cheung's case study about his build in public journes. Totally worth the read

creator.publiclab.co/case-study?r...

Nice landing page.

Congratulations on the launch.

My strategy to overcome self doubt and imposter:

1. Give yourself permission to be a person who doesn't know everything

2. Realize that even the pros don't have sh*t figured out (because of #3)

3. Acknowledge that you become a pro by doing new things daily, which is why you have self doubt.

I always thought finding a business idea was hard.

I read many books about brainstorming, etc.

Eventually, I distilled my findings into this simple 7-step process.

#buildinpublic

I'm a big fan of always keep learning.

What are you learning this week?

#buildinpublic #indiehackers

This week I wrote 5,122 words for my book.

I made good progress.

(my daily writing goal are 500 words)

#buildinpublic #indiehackers

Gaining knowledge is an excuse

It's comfortable to keep learning. Feels productive, right?

I mean after all, we're acquiring knowledge? What's wrong with that?

But deep down we know that excessive learning is an excuse—to not face the risk of failure that comes with doing.

Prefer extra fingers to amputations

Hey there

Huge step!

What's your project idea?

I'd like to know how it goes: Let's connect 🤝

PS I just built my first blue sky feed that happens to cover building in public:

Hey #buildinpublic community

I seized this Sunday (😉) and build my first feed.

It covers building in public:

Save and pin the feed to connect with other builders.

(I'd also connect with you, so please follow me 🤝😀)

PS you used #buildinpublic, I just built my first blue sky feed that happens to cover building in public:

bsky.app/profile/did:...

Congrats.

Better "late" than never right? At least you can monetize, now 💪

Let's connect!🤝

This looks neat. I like that you use obsidian and make plugins for it.

Interested in how it goes.

PS you used #buildinpublic, please consider following my buildinpublic feed

bsky.app/profile/did:...

Both.

But it is prime to validate your idea first.

You probably won't just copy a product or business, but give it a twist.

You need to validate this twist.

What would you rather be?

Didn't like the stock image either.

But I'm wondering what the butterfly has to do with blue sky...

Blue buttersky?

How is a butterfly aggressive to you?

Never had that thought when I saw one. 😅

Yeah, that dot is confusing...

Amazing how the two middle fingers are made for typing. 🤣

I have a couple of colleagues who type just like that.

Felt like you said "Mate shouldn't have named his son after his idol".

But I don't see the connection.

Maybe I misread your whole post. 🤷

What is the point you're trying to make?

This looks absolutely delicious.

Enjoy your breakfast.

So what?

Don't think this changes anything about how he feels about his son.

Can I reach 100 followers today?

This is the book.

If you want, take a look.

Today I wrote 1,324 words for the book, I'm writing.

Slow and steady wins the race.

The only way to make that fraud proof were to

a) make it somehow public, i.e. publicly verifiable blockchain ledger (not crypto!)
b) attach a slight cost to it, so that spamming it becomes uneconomic

I don't know if this really happens
