Moving all day long. Lost 30kg with discipline. Built things nobody used. Ignored marketing. Paid for it. Now figuring it out in public.

Now building with feedback 👉 Katılım Mart 2012

This post got me +144 followers overnight. And i just realized i somehow crossed 3,000 FOLLOWERS 🥳 Still feels weird. So maybe it’s time to introduce myself properly: I’m Timo from Germany. Not a full-time founder (yet). I’m doing this on the side while handling: > a 9–5 as a team lead in IT project management in public sector > dad life with a little one > being in relationship with my wifey for almost half of my life > building things that solve my own problems > 1st app failed: ergonomify to keep moving at the desk > currently building and distributing FocusMap as feedback solution Most of my SaaS building happens: early before work, late after work, and as always while walking at my desk. You can probably see the pattern already: Movement is what keeps me going. It all started at +30 kg. Back then: sport taught me discipline. Today that same discipline helps me build. Mostly that means walking and moving while hustling. Sometimes it’s running for new PRs (like a marathon next year). Sometimes it’s cycling 200 km on a weekend (like last one) because apparently sitting still is not my strength (and breaks me). So if you like reading about building SaaS with limited time, movement, family, discipline, and figuring things out in public, you’re probably in the right place. Now it’s your turn. I’d love to get to know you too: Who are you, are you moving too, and what are you building right now?

It worked as it's designed for: Woke up "easily" at a light sleep phase, but you still need to get your ass up. Especially after those kind of horrible night: Was up a dozen times. 80% sleep score confirms that. 🥱 5:26 h sleep 😵‍💫 1:17 h awake 😴 2:26 h deep sleep 💤 4:30 h quality sleep Result: woke up easily, even if at a sleep deficit of 2:30 hours. Will my body will show me the consequences?

@heyitzami It's still hard to do the reps if there's no one looking at you, but discipline will get you there

Wearing my Apple Watch again this night to use the auto sleep app to hit the alarm at light sleep Result should be: smarter wake up to be fully recovered at less sleep

Love this, Timo. I'm Johnny, based in Kuala Lumpur. I'm currently building a small prototype for parents here — a tool to help make better decisions on where to go and what to do with kids. kiddomap.ai I'm building it because I need it myself. Dad life, limited time, real problems. Let's see where this goes.

Today’s ride was somehow exhausting and relaxing at the same time. 133.72 km 972 m elevation gain 3,182 calories burned A lot of pacing, enough snacks, and a few very necessary stops. Favorite moment: 🧇 waffles in Marburg, right by the water Still funny, how the legs feel cooked around km 80 ... then somehow come back after km 100 like nothing happened. 😄

if there’s one thing I’d do earlier: get feedback and build in public instead of building in the dark for months that’s exactly why I built FocusMap 👇 focusmap.pro
