    PEOPLE

    PEOPLE

I really don't see the benefits of these social events nor do I particularly enjoy them. I would much rather stay behind and work on my...

    IDEA 
    So I am in this incubator at my university and my team has been formed for a week or so now. We are still at the early stages of our product validation process. We have a general idea of our target demographic and we noted some interesting problems we could solve. But the problem is that we...

    Sports Coaching App

    EXECUTION 
    I would jump straight to the MVP. Since you are building a platform, factors like usability and user experience contribute a lot. For example, do you want to learn to cook? -Yes! -Then read this book and attend all my work shops. This wouldn't work because the design choice is wrong. But...

    Juice Fasting

    HOT! 
    I did juice feast last summer for 50 days. The difference between feasting and fasting is that feasting requires you to drink 4 liters per day. You are getting all the nutrients you need except fibre, so it is a lot more sustainable. Aside from the normal physical symptoms, there are also many...
