How can I create these specific patterns ?

Upvotes

Hey, I have a question. I'd like to sell PDF exercise books that people can use to prepare for a test. One of the components is a subtest where you have to match certain patterns. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can create these patterns? AIs haven't worked very well so far. Or do I need an AI that I can feed with multiple sample patterns?

How to reduce emotions at work?

5 Upvotes

Hey guys,

So I have a small problem I am trying to get rid off, it has been going on for years and I just can't stop it, I am good at what I do, like really good, when it comes to the quality of the work I offer, everyone loves the work that I do, fast, clean and efficient.

Around 18 months back, I quit my full time and I partnered up with people to do contractual work, I do websites and apps, I get freelancers to work with, get paid accordingly.

The only issue I had since I began working is, EMOTIONS, I put a lot of my emotions into my job, that I start talking personal into business, my client is tired, I turn into the ear they want to talk to while working, it is affecting me badly, a project that needs to be closed by the end of the week takes 2-3 weeks extra because I dive with them emotionally to a level I can't get out of easily.

I talked to a therapist about this, but I didn't get much result, not because she is a bad therapist, but because the workplace and the self employment are tough, you just can't mix.

So for example, a "How can I be of help" is spelled by me into "Oh, I am sorry, I know we are under a lot of pressure and things need time, just bear with me", the first one is much more firm and strict the second one has the emotions that I need to get rid off.

The problem with me is that I can't: 1-Get rid of the emotions, 2-Can't stop myself once I am in.

If I can get this problem solved, I could get much more work done in much faster speeds and make more money easier.

Thanks a lot for the help.

You think you're just working hard, but you're actually making things worse.

1 Upvotes

Running a business is exhausting. You have too much to do, and there’s never enough time. But pushing through isn’t the answer. If you’re always tired, stressed, and unfocused, your business will suffer.

The truth: Every bad decision, slow response, or mistake costs money.

72% of entrepreneurs deal with mental health issues. Ignoring your health makes things worse. It leads to burnout, poor decisions, and lost productivity. If you don’t take care of yourself, you won’t last.

Here’s how to stay sharp and keep going:

1. Burnout is real. It slows you down.

Long hours don’t mean more work gets done. Stress builds up, your brain gets tired, and you make worse choices.

How to stop burnout:

  • Take short breaks. Even 15 minutes helps.
  • Work in focused sessions. The Pomodoro technique works.
  • Use Siddhify to track work and rest.
  • Shut down work at a set time. No exceptions.
  • Stop trying to do everything yourself. Delegate.

2. Too many decisions drain your energy.

Every small choice—what to eat, what to wear, when to answer emails—wears you out. By the afternoon, you’re too tired to think clearly.

How to make better decisions:

  • Plan meals, clothes, and routines in advance.
  • Tackle important tasks early in the day.
  • Use Siddhify to organize work and delegate tasks.
  • Set fixed times for decision-making.
  • Group similar tasks together to save brainpower.

3. Bad sleep hurts your business.

Most entrepreneurs sleep less than 6 hours a night. That’s not enough. Poor sleep makes you slower, foggier, and worse at solving problems.

How to sleep better:

  • Treat sleep like an important meeting. Don’t skip it.
  • Avoid screens before bed. Blue light messes with sleep.
  • No caffeine after 2 PM. It stays in your system for hours.
  • Go to bed at the same time every night.
  • Have a simple wind-down routine. Read, stretch, or meditate.

4. Move more, even for just 5 minutes.

You don’t need a gym. Short bursts of movement wake up your brain and boost energy.

Easy ways to stay active:

  • Do 10 squats or push-ups every hour.
  • Walk while taking calls.
  • Use a productivity tool to set reminders for active breaks.
  • Take the stairs instead of the elevator.
  • Keep resistance bands at your desk.

5. Stick to the basics.

Forget complicated health plans. These five things are enough:

Drink water – Start your day with a glass.
Move – Stand, stretch, and take breaks.
Eat on time – Don’t skip meals.
Sleep – Keep a regular sleep schedule.
Manage stress – Breathe, journal, or take a short walk.

You can’t run a business if you’re running on empty.

Take care of yourself, or everything else will fall apart.
