Also @Yan thanks for marketing insights and you are spot on yes! The fact is that I know that too, it just I need a break from that really as I was pursuing that project for month continuously sacrificing a lot and now when I freed myself from it , I'm done . Not saying dropped the idea but I need full break from that . Thanks for leaving a comment on that though, have a good one mate

Week 30 Developing Projects: One project finished. Stopped working. other ready and launch scheduled on 11st August Gym: Came back to regularity again. Summary of Week 30 I didn't write in a while. I was pretty busy with determining my life going forward based on what I actually want to do in life . And as long as I'm pretty know what I want to do I'm getting swayed away from time to time from my main course . Like I was with games, vibe coding recently . But I'm pretty sure I like to keep gaining knowledge and discover world and human as a species . Recently I read Selfish Gene by R.Dawkins and I was amazed by the idea the we organisms could be just vessels for gene to last, propagate and reproduce through millions of years , and evolution is just side effect that must happen when there is variety of organism, fight for limited resources . That all was so clear to me that I remembered suddenly what is the one thing that never bores me: science. With that realisation I no longer will be pursuing being milioner ... So that's my new goal, the pursue science as I was doing that for years until games hooked my couple of times and recently vibe coding projects . Frankly these kept me out from gaming as brought some level of stimulation so now when it's gone So I need to set a new goal . So with all the being said, I established new plan for being gaming free , it's not get to be milion idea but just keep learning rocket more knowledge. Dumbscrolling free: 31 weeks

Week 27 Developing Projects: One project finished. Stopped working. other almsot ready Gym: Came back to regularity again. Summary of Week 27 Came back to gum regularity again. This feels ok. Cravgins are less. This entry is limited as I don't have mucb time. The facts are that I have less cravings now. I almost finished my projects entirely. And I will be at gym at full speed starting next week. Vibe coding is also almost done. I created my own PKM ( Personal Knowledge Management) and it's ready for others as well byt I don't acutally care if anyone use it). So my journey with VibEcoding is that after 1 year of buidling sometghong from jstu a thought in my head - to full SaaS is finished. BNut it seems noone needs it ( B2B idea not PKM) .

And sorry for throwing advice , it's not I want to put myself as expert as seeing you are young, but I don't know maybe use it. If you don't agree feel free to disregard . Cheers

And also not superstitious at all, but I learnt after many years of listening of other ppl advice ( not often but it happened and then I did regret) that follow your instinct as much as possible . Even if you cannot logically explain some decision but your instinct tells you to do something - just do it . I live happy life just bc I believed in myself and followed my inner self , my instinct . Also don't listen AI , it will agree on anything . Use AI to build up on your ideas, but don't do the opposite

Hey sorry for late response. Yes I got some counselling I learnt few tricks . I gathered list of potential prospects . After my vacations I will be cold reaching . This is experience I never had. Kind of feel excited but I'm prepared on rejections. Luckily for me there are tons of IT companies I can ask for business to do with me and also I have nothing to loose

Week 25 Developing Projects: Btw with changed approach to B2B target, I am acutally ready. Gym: Trying to get with good regularity again Summary of Week 25 So I have solid marketing plan for my SaaS. But only I can test it after I finish vacations which is in 4 weeks from now. When it comes to be gaming free - still on good track. The cravings only diminished a little bit . I still feel I want to play. But also I noticed this feeling keeps on growing when I'm under stress - like now. Dumbscrolling free: 26 weeks

oh some incident management simualtion saas platform. Something I see other saas poorly designed. That's why I want to make some difference. Trying to market now, but it's tough

haha all good. guess the name is still not random Gratz on the exam! Good day

Nice! me too! what are you up to?

From experience with business plans: having it all written down helps set the tone, but only actions and commitment actually matter. I wrote a full business plan for one of my ideas back in May 2025. Less than 30% of it holds today. Just wanted to put that in perspective so you don't spend too much time on it. Also worth remembering: there are basically two ways to make money in business. Address someone's pain or give them entertainment. Addressing pain is about 70% of all business today. So find your niche, talk to people in it, sense what hurts the most, then wrap your plan around that. Take care!

Yeah I did the same this January, dropped social media first then gaming a week later. Though I have to admit the social media part wasn't planned, it just happened. But gaming was a conscious decision, and once I did it I realised staying dumbscrolling free made sense too. On cold turkey: some people say you shouldn't. I say there's no other way. Cold turkey is the only method that works, the key is just to keep trying even when you fail. Relapses don't mean it's over. Speaking from 5 years of trying to quit gaming myself. Take care.

@Ikar when I found out I was going to be a father, summer 2021, I read a bunch of parenting books. My son is now 4 and I can tell you that most of that book knowledge turned out to be pretty useless in practice. What actually matters is your own emotional state. Kids mirror everything back at you. If your emotions aren't sorted, it comes back at you doubled. Not saying you have unresolved stuff, just speaking from experience. Sort yourself out before the baby arrives :D Glad you checked your old diary, I did the same and it really helps with perspective. I've been here since 2021 as well. Currently at 23 weeks gaming free. Cravings have been rough lately, a bit easier this week but still there. Anyway, good day to you!

Week 23 Developing Projects: I set clear ETAs now. I am going to launch on of the product on beggining of August Gym: Trying to get with good regularity again Summary of Week 23 One thing I learned this week on one of my projects: I had the wrong consumer group from the start. I assumed B2C. Turns out there's zero interest there, despite running an aggressive marketing campaign. Nobody is actually trying the platform, even people who signed up for beta testing. Hard pill to swallow. I was in a bad mood for a day. Then I realised I'm too deep into this to stop. So I'm giving it one last shot by shifting to B2B, targeting IT businesses instead. Spending the next 4 weeks preparing everything before reaching out with a proper business offer. Right before launch. Kept me occupied. Less cravings this week because of it. Dumbscrolling free: 24 weeks

Now it is jsut reading scientific staff or engaging in the project. This helps
