    I met a "fastlaner" IRL! Changed my view on things

    EXECUTION 
    Let's call him "Albert". He's in his 30s, a bit eccentric. Met him last semester in an introductory computer science class. Thought he was a bit crazy as he seemed to have an obsessive level of focus on the material. At times he would call out the professor on things which seemed trivial...

    That's EXACTLY how I feel; divided. Between school, my app project and now this thing. That's why I just emailed the guy and cancelled the web site idea. School will be over soon and from this point onwards I won't focus on any other idea until I have my first app out in the android...

    EXECUTION 
    Am I giving up too soon? Spoke to a client about setting up a wordpress site. Turns out he wants everything installed on his server and his server is running Ubuntu. I've never used Ubuntu before and I've never setup my own server before. I spent the entire day today working on that and made...

    Do mobile apps violate the NECST principles?

    SAAS / APPS WEB/DIGITAL 
    I haven't read about CENTS yet but here are my thoughts: Needs: Perceived Needs are what count, even if they're not really needs at all. Entry: I'm learning app development too, I'd say the barrier is still quite high. However, I'll agree that it is getting lower, as a result, we see more apps...

    I want to make my app look GOOD, any useful resources?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Building my first app that I plan on launching in the app store for android and eventually iOS. The code behind the app is fairly simple so I'm now at the point where I'm planning out what I want the user interface to look like. I did a quick search for some videos that talk about designing...

    EXECUTION 
    update: Came up with a new app idea which should be easier to make and easier to monetize than what I was doing before. This is now my primary focus. That said, I don't believe I've done enough due diligence on flipping just yet so I should probably quarter off some time in my day to work on...

    what I've learned so far: Odesk - it's not really all that different from applying for a real job, except now you're competing against highly qualified people from the other side of the world Kijiji - flipping consumer electronics is not the way to go on here, most things in that category get...

    I'm posting my situation in the hopes that I can better organize my game plan by writing it out and perhaps learn something from those who are infinitely wiser than me. A bit about me: - 26 years old - working on computer science degree - live with parents I have about $500 left from my...

    My 30 day sleep challenge

    EXECUTION 
    I usually go to bed around 10 and wake up at 4:15 so that's about 6 hours. I actually just deleted everything I wrote because I realized you're right, I should be keeping track of my time. I do get my stuff done and I get it done early but at the end of my day I still find myself wondering...

    My 30 day sleep challenge

    EXECUTION 
    Day 24 - done, sleep time: 6 hours (slept at 10) I have to give at least some credit to The Power of Less. It's not a book that will inspire or motivate you but it will get you thinking about two important ideas: 1. Developing routines 2. Focusing on the essentials in life
