Hello Reader, Over the years, this community has explored career growth, productivity, goal setting, growing networks, and building an online presence. Together, we’ve tackled the challenges of thriving as programmers and tech professionals. Today, I’m thrilled to share my vision for 2025—a vision that aligns with both my personal journey and our shared aspirations. As someone who has spent years juggling a 9-to-5 job, family life, and the dream of building something meaningful, I know exactly how it feels to want more. More freedom, more fulfillment, and more control over your future. I’ve been there—balancing long workdays while freelancing, running a web agency, experimenting with affiliate websites, and investing in stocks and real estate. Along the way, I’ve learned that building something on the side isn’t just about extra income; it’s about unlocking your potential, creating opportunities, and working toward financial freedom. Now, I’m ready to embark on my next big chapter: building a SaaS startup—and I want to guide you in doing the same. What is SaaS? If building a SaaS startup feels like a big leap, that’s okay. You can still follow along and work on a side project or portfolio instead. Who knows where this journey might take you? My mission is simple:To simplify the SaaS journey, help part-time founders overcome the overwhelm, and guide you step-by-step from idea to launch—all without quitting your day job. Why this matters:For many part-time founders, the hardest part isn’t building a product—it’s figuring out what to build. This single challenge has kept countless programmers on the sidelines for years. The pressure to come up with a “perfect” idea, combined with the fear of choosing the wrong one, can be paralyzing. And once you have an idea, the journey doesn’t get easier. Most part-time founders share the same struggles:

Hello Reader, Last week, I came off an intense stretch of focused work. I call it extreme momentum. It’s the kind of mode where I move fast, ship hard, and almost forget to breathe. But when it ends?

And when I finally slow down, I’m staring at a mess: Outdated tasks Random notes & ideas Disconnected logs of what I did A system that no longer reflects my...
