🍅 change pomodoro app to 50mins flow, 10mins break

after a month of experimentation, learning more about myself, and discovering that i can actually focus for quite long periods of time.

as i'm doing more creative & deep-thinking work rather than administrative tasks, a 25-min interval is barely enough and honestly quite anxiety-inducing.

the pomodoro is not so much a reminder to focus (for me), but more a reminder to take breaks, which is something i often forget to do especially when i'm deeply engrossed in something.

📆 tweak the week's schedule to focus only on 2 tasks per day

instead of 5 tasks per day (4*1 hour projects, and 1*4 hours study)... naturally i got burnt out, confused, demotivated... duh!

choosing to focus on 1 project for the next couple of weeks until i see some results

so,
4 hours on one project, before lunch
4 hours learning Rails, after lunch

keeping it simple!

📊 continue working on pricing tiers

What guidelines are you looking to for yours? i try to look at similar-ish services. The beauty of it is we get to keep adjusting as we go along.

It is hard, yeah. I've changed my mind a dozen times and i'm not even close to launching yet 😅

Does Zero to Sold have any advice on pricing?

You'll never know why ppl want to give you money. They will pay you because they see value in your product. Your job is to create that value, and convince ppl of that value.

I know, I know… sounds like very vague 'twitter-guru-woowoo-BS' 😂 but happy to brainstorm more on Twitter DM :) Again (i love disclaimers) can't guarantee it'll be any help, but i've often found talking things out with people helps you oil your 🧠 gears.

Will you be offering a trial period to start?
