@nickventuri Yup, like 99% people scared to start!

@sans_builds the other 36 are still planning

(Day 23/365 of Growing on X) 37 brilliant Googlers asked Jeff Sue on how to start a creator channel! Exactly ONE took action The barrier was never intelligence It was never having enough time It was never the idea It was just doing it What's stopping you?

@naumeguveya Exactly this. And what's wild is the brain doesn't just respond to environment. It gets conditioned by it. Same desk, same posture, same coffee, same stuck loop. Most people think they need better ideas. They need a different ceiling to stare at.

@sans_builds Environment shapes cognition more than many people realize. Changing space often changes the quality of thought itself.

(Day 24/365 of Growing on X) Left my room this morning, Walked to the library The air hit different I got excited to work Got Clarity on my whole week's work Same four walls will give you the same four thoughts. Every time. Leave the room The ideas are waiting outside

@ShraddhaShips I have noticed this too in my own work. The days I keep a fixed routine feel calmer and way more productive without forcing it.

mental clarity isn't a mood. it's a system. - same start time every day - first 90 min: no meetings, no DMs - one priority written the night before - breaks on a timer, not when you feel like it show up to the same conditions and the focus follows.

@elgermerlo Honestly just a basic notes app. I dump everything there and it keeps my head clear so I can actually focus on building instead of remembering things. Simple!

What's the one tool you use every single day that made your solo operation actually viable? Not the trendy one everyone talks about, the one that actually changed the game for you.

@EmBeeThree Yeah, calling it natural talent really hides all the repetition and struggle behind it. Most skill is just persistence nobody talks about.

it’s a massive insult to claim the only reason that someone is good at something is because they are just “naturally good at it” when you know that tons of effort and suffering was required to get there you don’t know anything the ridiculous amount of failure the 1000 times you doubt yourself the frustration and anger just to pick yourself up and try again

@jonbrosio I learned this the hard way early on. I once got a chance because of skills, but lost it later because I did not show up well as a teammate, and that stayed with me more than any missed opportunity.

I'm convinced the best investment you can make is in becoming someone people want to work with. Skills get you in the door Character keeps you in the room

@naumeguveya There were nights I felt too tired to continue, but even one focused hour kept the project alive a little longer. People underestimate how much progress comes from protecting those small windows of time.

Side projects don't live or die on ideas or skill. They live or die in the three hours on Saturday night after the family is asleep. If you spend those hours on what you’re building, the project survives. If you give them to the phone, it dies. Those margins are the whole mechanism.

@alecsime People really underestimate how powerful ordinary daily actions become over time. Start small --> boring things everyday --> win in long run!

GM ☕️ Your life can look completely different 12 months from now if you stop treating your goals like side quests. Lock in. Answer the emails. Take the meetings. Hit the gym. Make the calls. Post the content. Learn the skill. Small actions every day build big lives.

@ruthblooming There is a different kind of tired that comes from constantly fighting your own workflow every day. That kind of friction slowly drains your motivation even when you still care.

People think burnout comes from working too hard. Sometimes it comes from: Working against yourself. Wrong pace. Wrong systems. Wrong expectations. Wrong environment. Friction exhausts faster than effort.

@ShraddhaShips Starting before checking everything is honestly underrated

high output isn't about working more hours it's about fewer decisions before the work begins pick your one thing the night before start it before you check anything guard that window like it's the only one that matters because it is

@laurencebuilds Yes, the mental weight of uncertainty is something even I feel most times of the week which is unexplainable to people

Some days, building feels exciting. Other days, it feels like carrying a question nobody else can answer. Is this worth it? Am I on the right path? Should I keep going or change direction? That uncertainty can drain more energy than the actual work. Founders do not just need discipline. They need enough signal to believe the next step is still worth taking.

@Iammartinyau So true. The internet already has endless information, but a real perspective is what makes someone worth following!

Pick a topic and you become a search engine. Own your perspective and you become irreplaceable.

@ItsThomAnt The scary part for some people is probably the freedom that comes with it. Work is going to look completely different in a few years.

2027 prediction: AI won’t just replace jobs. It will make working for yourself look realistic. That shift is going to hit harder than people think.

@realsrajput Yes absolutely! What made you create content here on X, what was that motivation?

@sans_builds perfectionism is fear disguised as action. Most people wait on the sidelines waiting for the perfect time. That's a detriment.

@SuiInsiders I am wondering how did you come to my notification

@EmailCopyJames Here I am talking about Jeff Sue and he giving advice to people who asked me how to start YouTube and only 1 person started!

@sans_builds the image thumbnail hook me hard, but in reality Alid abdual is already well know so what ever he does, people just watch it now

@everton_dev Can you believe it? that too for just basic Gen AI and also not the intermediate or building advance level AI stuff like AI agent and all

@sans_builds 😯

We live in an era with insane leverage for learning. AI made going deep on any topic basically free. And yet, most people are outsourcing their thinking instead of leveling it up. Kinda sad.

@giordanorandone Partly, yes. But tools shape behavior more than we admit. Do you agree? Obsidian is incredible at helping you build systems, but not always at pushing you back toward unresolved questions, or decisions.

@sans_builds I get you. But that feels more like a personal process thing than an actual missing feature, right?

What do you miss in Obsidian or Notion? What would an ideal solution need to offer that neither Notion nor Obsidian currently has?

@giordanorandone Their KPI should be : whether the notes are actually leading somewhere to make a decision rather than just getting more beautiful and aesthetic!

@giordanorandone Obsidian can trick you into mistaking organization for understanding. Like you spend hours linking notes, refining systems, polishing dashboards but sometimes real questions stay unanswered is what I feel. Structure should emerge from thinking and not replace it.
