Day 320 - Boredom quotient https://golifelog.com/posts/boredom-quotient-1637028958460

Success doesn’t have to be about how hard you work or how smart you are, but which game you choose to play in.

Choose one which you can win. Easily.

A game that’s so boring that your peers can’t stand playing in it. A game where your boredom quotient makes you a winner.
Jason Leow Author

Yes, I think boring industries might actually work in our favour as indie hackers too!

Day 319 - Plugins For Carrd, v2.0? - https://golifelog.com/posts/plugins-for-carrd-v20-1636963560746

...by all measures, Plugins is working, and has potential to grow further. But I wanted Lifelog to succeed so much that I had ignored Plugins for too long. I’ll need a more balanced approach moving forward.

I’ll still develop Lifelog to be the writing tool that I want to keep using every day. But Plugins will need to step up to be my revenue generator. Guess what? On monthly average, it had already surpassed Lifelog! Right under my nose!

Plugins For Carrd v2.0 anyone?

True focus isn't:

Saying no to unimportant things.
Saying yes to important things.

That's easy.

True focus is saying no to even the GOOD things,

in order to focus on the one EXCEPTIONAL thing that will move the needle by 100x.

True focus hurts to let go.

I’d been thinking about what I wish to accomplish in the final month of my #100daysofmarketing challenge.

Some emerging ideas that’s forming as we speak, and deserves the good first step of writing it down as a way to think through it:

• Kickstart a new tweet category in my tweet schedule - writing habits for goals/success
• SEO key word research for LifeBlog - time to write real SEO shit
• Continue with Visual Twitter
• Fix copywriting for landing page

Day 317 - True focus https://golifelog.com/posts/true-focus-1636784419801

About focus:
It’s easy to say no to things you know are unimportant. It’s a no-brainer to say yes to things that are easily identifiable as important.

Bad things, no. Good things, yes. Simple.

But true focus is about saying no to even the good things.

Read that again. You heard that right.

Yes, because you got to give up on even the good things if you want to truly focus on the great things, the exceptional goals that will move the needle by 10x, or 100x.
