    • Spending hours by looking to home page :)
    • Then looking to Analytics
    • Then watching some Hotjar records.

      Based on your points I assume your job is to generate leads by refining your landing page?

        Absolutely. A team of 2 multiplies x3 times the results. A team of 3 does a x5. Aligning strengths makes the group more productive.

          Couldn’t agrees more, and I can only put in more hard work to slowly archive that as a team of 1.
          It’s really lucky to meet not just one but two other person that shares the same passion and dedication as you do, and I truly envy that. 😌

    • Juggling between working on my side project and working my normal job
    • Making decisions - As solo founder all decisions must go through me and I easily get too much in my head and overthink things.
    • Vices - There are many hidden vices that seem innocent but are hurting productivity like: eating sugar, eating too late in the night (messes up my next morning), alcohol, coffee, watching youtube videos during the day, social media, even podcasts (procrastination hidden as self-improvement or education)

        Oh yes the podcasts and audiobooks, especially while walking.
        Now that I've cut them out I come up with my best ideas during my regular walks, previously it was just constant noise
