Launch Anxiety
The date is nearing and while I am not over-dramatic, it does feel very much like the moments before you hit send on a "report"/"analysis"/"memo" email to the whole company.
But like that report you send out...there is some solace in knowing...no one is going to read this anyway!
Just throwing it out there and I hope to better document the weeks prior and post in another post.

I feel similarly every time before a product launch - equal parts excitement and almost paralyzing anxiety. I get to run product at a SaaS company (AWeber) and also launch side projects pretty regularly, and it's the same feeling whether I'm starting from 0 users, and releasing new features or products for AWeber's large userbase.
As I'm sure you already know, launched is better than not launched. Once it's out there, I'm sure you're going to learn a bunch of things you've missed or misjudged, but you'll learn, iterate, and improve.
If you need support or another pair of eyes on something, reach out.
Thanks man! “Launched is better than not launched”. True that.
I’m still pushing through and hope to provide some more updates over the course of the coming weeks. But yeah, planned to go live before the new year (fingers crossed).
I may actually take you up and reach out beforehand. Thanks!
