Writing on tech, sales, and whatever else I feel like

Little progress made last week. I’m considering it as a week off.

It was the quarter-finals of the European Cup of Football 2016. Portugal and Poland were tied at 1 goal each. The games goes into overtime and remains tied. Goes to penalty shoot-out. When Portugal was choosing the kickers Cristiano Ronaldo famously said to one of the players “You’re kicking. You kick well. Come on. If we lose f*ck it.” (video)

How to have more fun? Is it possible to turn boring activities into something fun?

Where do I spend my time?

For creators inaction may come from finding that a similar product already exists. It’s easy to think, the problem has already been solved. Why would anyone want what I’m building?

Budget, time, scope, length.

Last week was still pretty much dedicated to define my full-time employment. Hope to get it resolved this week to put more focus on the side-projects until new gig starts.

I’ve been surfing for 20+ years. In my late teens, I was good. Competed and did well at national level. Then life happened. College, work, family, kids. I didn’t surf much over the last decade and naturally I lost some skill.

There’s been a movement to build things out in the open. It’s very refreshing to see this kind of transparency.

Being happy at work is getting lucky.
