If you want to be taken seriously, never half-ass anything.
Always full-ass it.

Waymo is paying people $10 to close car doors.
That's the whole job. A passenger left the door open. Now a human has to drive across town to close it.
This is what happens when you optimise for everything except the obvious.

I make enough to cover my house, groceries, and travels with 1 strategy:
"I wonder if that will work? Let me try."
That's my entire inner monologue. Every single day.
The universe keeps rewarding curiosity and I'm eternally grateful.

Had an idea for a directory in 2024.
Launched it.
Nobody cared.
Made <$2 a day for 5 months.
Still worked on it every single day.
Nobody understood why I kept going.
Then a company paid me $2,000 to sponsor it.
That changed everything.
2 years later, still generating revenue.
Just ship it.
