I've been struggling with this for a long time. On one side, a wolf whispers to me to work more, earn more, and accumulate more things. On the other, another force invites me to let go, live with less, and find peace in simplicity. Maybe it's a reflection of the eternal dichotomy between East and West. Does anyone else feel this way?
The indie hacker path is hard and full of traps (and by indie hacker I mean any entrepreneur).
The best decisions are made from a position of strength. After a year in Switzerland, I left my job at a diamond company. Even though they offered me a senior role, it wasn’t what I was looking for.
My biggest comfort in adult life was realizing that nobody has any fucking idea what they're doing. The average person doesn’t have a good plan; hell, they don’t even have “a plan.” Just by putting in a bit of effort every day and making medium- and long-term plans, you’re already playing in the big leagues.
Most people consume nonstop, but almost nobody creates. Sure, creating takes time and effort, but it’s infinitely more satisfying.

Before moving to 🇨🇭, these amounts of money were impossible to imagine What 2 years abroad and a whole lot of hard work can do Now I’m at my financial peak (and my physical peak 💪)
Quoted postI see a lot of people going through life without direction. They don't know what to do because they don't know where they want to go. I think people should ask themselves more often: Where would I like to be 10 years from now?
One thing that fascinates me: A lot of people use their bad days as a cheap excuse to justify their shitty behavior. Having a terrible day doesn’t give you a free pass to be an asshole to your partner, friends, or family. This one’s entirely on you.
