It's the small wins that keep you going

Every successful app started terrible. Yours can too.


Forget unicorn status. Build something 50 people happily pay for.


Your first user doesn't care about your tech stack. They care if it solves their problem.


Version 1 should embarrass you. If it doesn't, you launched too late.


Your startup will die from no customers. Not from technical debt.


Perfect architecture with no users is just expensive hosting.


Stop building what you think they need. Ask them. Then build that.


Beautiful code that nobody uses is just an expensive hobby.


Everyone's adding AI. Maybe your app is fine without it.


Everyone's optimising for scale. Start by optimising for one happy customer.


Everyone's raising millions. I just want 10 paying customers.


This week I'm NOT: Rewriting everything Adding "one more feature" You?


Everyone's chasing unicorns. I just want recurring revenue for coffee.


Friday night plans: Netflix ❌ New side project ✓ We never learn.


Shipped ugly Monday. Shipped broken Tuesday. Shipped working Wednesday. Progress beats perfection.


Worst part of coding: Writing documentation OR Reading your old code


My commit history: "Fixed bug" "Actually fixed bug" "Please work" "IT WORKS" Professional.


Optimised for 200ms load time. Still have zero users. Speed wasn't the problem.


Your startup doesn't need perfect code. It needs customers.
