I've been working hard on a new business for a year. Been working 7 days a week for months. Got my first two sales today and it's a relief.
Some random thoughts before I head to bed.
- I'm a good coach in my domain, enough to make a living in the domain. But without my business coach I'd be screwed. Having a set of eyes on what you're doing is so important.
He's the best - honest, but very tactful with is feedback, which makes it easy to take. I get credit for taking almost all of it because he's the coach and I'm coachable.
We're now friends outside of the working relationship and that's neat too.
- The 4% Stripe is taking pisses me off. I'm used to having to pay just over 2.6% in transaction fees, but for this, it's 4%.
- I've riden my bike - very slow - most days this month. Consistency in that area has been so great to sustain the effort.
- I work in Codex and Claude Code every day. And there still is so much to learn with what they do well and what they do poorly, and how you have to be strategic about how you use them in tandem.
- Codex browser control and computer control is still vodoo.
Excited to listen to the
@The Bitcoin Way podcast with Matt Hill in the coming days. Might need to drive to get the dog some special bones to celebrate and listen on the way.
I have no idea what the bitcoin prices have been the past week, which is a good thing for me.
