Who would you ask and what, in 2021, to get inspired on your journey as an indie hacker?

Do you wish you had a mentor? Who would you want your mentor to be, and which questions would you ask to your mentor?

What’s the best advice you can give to help plan a career as an indie hacker rather than simply work to keep a job?
How do you encourage innovative ideas?
How would you describe your personal style?
Do you have a mentor? How have they influenced you?
What do you do to constantly challenge your underlying beliefs and assumptions?
Would you do anything differently if given the opportunity?
How and where do you find inspiration?
How do you keep your feelings separate from your decision-making?
What values are you committed to?
How do you balance your work and home life?
Do you have any books that you would suggest I read?
Thanks!
