i guarantee you you've counterfactually lost money on all but 1, maybe 2, of the things you've subscribed yearly to

Show thread

my impulse is:

1) If you've used it near-daily for a year and think you'll use it for the rest of your life, get a yearly subscription (AND IMMEDIATELY CANCEL IT)

2) THAT'S IT. never ever under any other circumstances should you get a yearly subscription

Show thread

someone should make a good rule of thumb for when to sign up for a yearly subscription over a monthly one

systems engineering doesn't count as engineering btw

that's just thinking

I’m in the most elegant Airbnb I’ve ever been in. It’s a sacred place, I’ve been walking around in awe for hours.

It’s one of the strongest experiences I’ve ever had in how your environment designs you.

Deeply inspiring to create deliberate environments when back home.

First session is always free, to see if we fit and if I can even set you up for success in ~30min-1hr without longer-term help!

I will be offering very very generous prices until I receive enough testimonials to back up more standard prices <3

what are some projects you’ve considered doing, made a tiny bit of headway on, and ended up abandoning or getting distracted from?

If not FE web dev, I provide general project planning and accountability help. I learn about your subject enough so I can make good recommendations. It's easier for me to do this in the same way that it's easier to clean someone else's room than your own.

I help remove decision fatigue and make sure you're not wasting your time. I get the menial stuff out of your way so you can focus on learning. We always structure our time together to be useful to you. We talk explicitly about what that could look like. We adapt as we go.

I am primarily offering services as a quasi-tutor in frontend web development.

If FE web dev, we pick a course together (I have suggestions), you get to bombard me with technical or meta-level questions, we meet regularly to discuss your progress.

YOU ARE:
- someone who is having a hard time sticking to the thing they want to do and needs external accountability, motivation, or help

I AM:
- good at helping you break down, plan, and stay accountable for the thing you want to do
- invested in your success
- anti-shame
