The 5 in 5 Quest
On August 29th, 2024, I started reflecting on my career prospects and future. I wanted to try something a little different with my professional life—maybe start a business or something. I didn’t even know what exactly, but I knew that even though I’ve never been a very materialistic person, I wanted to make enough money to achieve that financial independence everyone talks about online. So, I decided to shoot for the moon and set a goal: to make 5 million dollars in 5 years.
Watch me try, fail, and try again—maybe we can both learn something along the way and eventually get there.

I Need More Energy
This morning, I was looking for an excuse to procrastinate on my day job, and lucky for me, YouTube’s algorithm came to the rescue. It recommended a podcast interview with a scientist talking about cancer research. So, naturally, I clicked on it. They discussed a lot...
So Much Thinking and Planning, So Little Doing
Last week, I did all the research I needed to redo the waitlist for the app I'm planning to build with my college friend. I even made the template I posted about. I had everything mapped out—each section, the domain, the hosting, and a template for the actual site....
The Doner Kebab Effect And The YouTube Algorithm
Okay, I think I meant the Dunning-Kruger effect. Maybe I’m just hungry and losing track of what I’m doing. Anyway, I recently posted about trying to come up with a better waitlist page for the app I’m working on with my college friend. I started using ChatGPT for...
ChatGPT And The Waitlist
I recently posted here about what I’ve been learning regarding waitlists and idea validation. Turns out, I didn’t really have a good waitlist setup for the app I’m building with my college friend. The current version was just a plain paragraph, an email input, and a...
Validating An Idea
A few weeks ago, I watched a podcast featuring Marc Randolph, one of the co-founders of Netflix. He talked about the early days of Netflix and how the idea came to be. I highly recommend checking out the whole interview, but the part that really stuck with me was when...
