03 Share what you accomplished yesterday.

04 Share what you commit to accomplishing today.

    @Davey on prioritizing a home office for the business & welcoming a new puppy into your life.
    @jpusateri on deploying his app, congrats!

    SIDE NOTE
    MVP at this stage is the minimum validated problem. Past mistakes have been rooted in not knowing and understanding the actual customer pain. Enough of that BS πŸ’©, my time cost money ⏰ ===πŸ’°. I'm cutting this bad habit off.

      Thanks Helen! Needed the space, working in the living room was starting to be a drag ;)

      1. 1

        No problem, bruh. I get it... every time I visit family I was stuck in the living room. Last year, I rented a hot desk at WeWork to get stuff done while spending time w/ family. Trust me that shit adds up - either capital or opportunity lost!

        Plus, when you have a separate space your mentality change... You realized you're here to work and not F around. It's almost like a uniform.
