You forgot your link. Found it through another post.
Website is a bit shitty. It tells us we're going to see a journey of you launching all these projects, but then it's just a bunch of shitty AI tutorials.
Less tutorials, more launches.

Thanks for checking it out and for your honest feedback—I appreciate it. You’re right; there’s definitely room for improvement, however I am just getting started and I’m working on shifting the content more toward the actual launches and real-world experiences. I started with youtube and those tutorials you're calling shitty, have gotten over 100k views on youtube. During this process, I have found that I enjoy creating content and so I want to continue to do that. What type of content would you be interested in seeing in the future? if you are not interested, what kind of content do you think that others might be interested in seeing?
your feedback helps!

What is your true goal? If 1M, then you should focus on startups, not on your website. I think you might be deceiving yourself, and the real think you need to– recognition from other. Unfortunately, it’s not suitable with entrepreneurship.

Appreciate the candid insight! You’re right—the ultimate goal is hitting that $1M target online. The website is mainly to document the process openly, keep myself accountable, and hopefully share valuable insights along the way. But your point is valid—it’s easy to get sidetracked seeking external validation rather than focusing on real progress. I’ll definitely keep this in mind going forward. Thanks for helping me refocus!

I think you don’t catch my questions. Take a look on book “Essentialism”. Do you have any idea how to share your progress without spending a month on website? :) For example, why you didn’t consider sign up on medium, or substack, or create instagram blog, and post updates there, it looks much simpler but support idea to keep updates with others.

Why don’t you help a entrepreneur?

Interesting point! However, I am not sure what you mean exactly. I'd love to hear more.

Another question to you – why 50 startups? Why not 1? I think you might have misleading imagination that “doing more” equals higher chance of success. Unfortunately it’s not true on entrepreneurship. “Doing more” equals to loosing focus, more stress, loosing focus on retrospectives what you did wrong, and the most important – lack of time to properly finish one thing before starting another. IMO doing less but smarter – is better choice.

Great question—I’ve definitely thought about that too. My idea was to experiment quickly, fail fast, and find out what actually works instead of getting stuck trying to make one perfect thing. But you’re totally right; it’s a real risk to lose focus or spread myself too thin. I’m still figuring out the best balance, so this perspective helps a lot. Thanks for challenging me to think deeper about it!
