just came across Kevon Cheung's case study about his build in public journey.

I learned a ton reading it.

Totally worth your time.

I will never get wealthy by selling my time.

Neither will you.

This is why I am building my own business.

And you should, too

@tuomas_h I'd be as surprised as you are.

I'm used to like 100s of calls trying to convince me to stay a customer.

Don't fall victim to information paralysis.

There is always more to learn.

It’s not about reading countless books.

Learning can be a reason to stay busy while avoiding being productive.

Be a smart learner instead of a classic one

"Since AI is apparently taking our jobs, if you weren’t a dev what would you be?"

Copy writer. No, wait...

Philosopher. No, wait...

Doctor. No, wait...

Artist, then? Oh, come on.

Ehm... Taxi. Driver? Ah, f#ck.

I guess, I'll become a construction worker, then.

What do you mean, 3D printing...

I always thought finding a business idea was hard.

I read many books about brainstorming, etc.

Eventually, I distilled my findings into this simple 7-step process.
