I felt stuck... so I built a side project to my side project: Motivational WD-40

Hey all!

I'm working on SpaceTime - which is my primary project and the product I spend most of my free time on.

That said, earlier this week, I had the urge to scratch an itch and build something tiny that I've wanted for quite some time. It's a tool that's supposed to help me get "unstuck". Currently lives here https://md40.now.sh (but getting a real domain soon haha)

As a maker, you can occasionally get stuck. Like when there's something big or annoying that you have to deal with that's not your product/business (like, doctor's appointments or bills) and you let them pile up and drain your energy. Or you might wake up and just aren't on your game - some structure can help.

So that's all Motivational WD-40 does right now, it's a collection of 2 tools - one to help you clarify a nebulous task. And another to help you have a Kickass Morning.

Hope this helps you to keep on shipping! And let me know if you have any ideas for how Motivational WD-40 can be better for you!

    Cool! But I think you might get in trouble with that name lol.

      It's true - will probably have to change the name if it catches on in any way, but we'll cross that bridge if we get there!
