What's your super power? 🦸

What do you do well that you also love doing?

Me? I love connecting the dots in communities to help them grow!

on November 27, 2019
  1. 9

    Building and designing products! Easily my favorite work-related thing to do.

  2. 5

    I can exit vim.

  3. 4

    Persistence. (Unfortunately, my kryptonite is consistency.)

  4. 4

    Jack of all trades

    1. 2

      I’m same, very same! Definitely a super power.

  5. 4

    Ability to switch from technical to non-technical mode.

    I know JavaScript/React like the back of my hand. Got a good eye for design as well :)

  7. 4

    Build SaaS. Quick and well. 😊 ... 🕺

  8. 3

    I'm a dot connector as well. But I am better at connecting information--research, news stories, etc.

  9. 3

    Work related:

    • Digging. I do not stop until I find the solution.
    • Design. I have it easy to understand a vision.

    Not work related:
    I speak 6 languages.

    • Spanish
    • Catalonian
    • Italian
    • English
    • Swedish
    • Norweigan
    • Finnish ( little )
      I want to learn Japanese...
    1. 1

      Damn that's a lot of languages! How did you come about learning those?

      1. 2

        Well... life circumstances.
        Mom is from Spain, dad is from italy. I was born in London. When I lived in Spain it was in thre Valencian Community, they speak Valencian. Not same as Catalan.

        Then I went to Harrogate, near Leeds in the UK to learn more English...

        Years went I met my Finnish-Swedish wife so we moved to Helsinki, Finland I had to learn a bit of Finnish. Then we moved to the Ã…land Islands, they belong to Finland but official language is Swedish....and Norwegian because is similar to Swedish so it comes in the package...

        I know, is a mess....

    Superpowers achieved over the last 10 years:

    • Not caring about 100% perfection, ship at 90%
    • Test on smaller audiences before pursuing ideas
    • $0 ad spend marketing before pumping money in ads to validate ideas
    • Learning quick, implementing right away
    • Scratching my own itch - if I like it, others will probably like it as well
    • Making lists of superpowers
  11. 3

    Losing myself in ux details, it’s both a super power and a super curse

  12. 2

    Keep working on something without thinking about $$ ... :)

  13. 2

    To get distracted on Youtube and reddit, while I should do own projects.

    1. 1

      People talk about getting lost in YouTube but is also dangerous.
      .

  14. 1

    Nothing. I'm just working on things in the last 30 years, and I try to learn from my mistakes.

  15. 1

    I have this insane ability to let whatever was bothering me stay in the past. Every day is a new day, nothing before can ruin it.

  16. 1

    Work/IH related:

    • Went from being a data engineering intern to becoming a senior data engineer within one year, so I guess I'm good at data stuff
    • I'm better at writing and project management than most engineers, likely because of my consulting background

    Personal life:

    • Eating an unnecessary amount of tacos
  17. 1

    I think mine is breaking up problems and looking at things at a lot of angles at the same time. Perspective maybe.

  18. 1

    using drag and drop

  19. 1

    I’ll do whatever it takes to get to where I want to go. So... being shamelessly optimistic.

  20. 1

    My super power is to miss all the checkpoints lol.

  21. 1

    I know how floats work.

  22. 1

    Dumb enough to try it!

  23. 1

    Able to get to top 1-10% in any field quickly.

    In gaming I was able to easily verify this as I would play games for a few weeks and rank very well on leaderboards. WoW, league of legends, fortnite, overwatch and hearthstone.

    I learnt to code part time in 3 months and got a job after it.

    In marketing I was able to learn Product Hunt and get a top 400 product on first launch with no money and 0 audience.

    Sales I was able to get open rates at 80% compared to others in the market who have been doing sales for years who get 10% or less.
