I hope everyone enjoyed the 24hour no sleep chaotic whatever yesterdays installment was
Bec we will not be doing that again😂
Def a chill Monday to follow up a crazy weekend, much appreciated, although the cafe did not have WiFi or AC so that was not the best🥲
But nevertheless we persevere
I just realized yesterday today will be the 42nd newsletter (hence the title, it’s all I could hear in my head lol, am I a NYer now?)
And to think when I started this I wondered what on earth I was gonna write about everyday.
Tbh I haven’t been as locked in as I should be.
I’m hoping the month off socials will help with that, but who knows.
I talk a lot about content, and making content, seeing content etc, not so much in other things, so here’s a quick breakdown.
relaunched podcast- first 2 episodes are out
Launched unuvo MVP, liked it then, not so much now, much pivoting will be done
Started research into new security tools/ventures
Partnered a bug bounty friend so that will hopefully be cool
Started raising for a super secret side project. Learning a lot bec I’ve never raised before
Got back into art a little, and sent out two artworks to companies I ❤️
Started learning blender
(If you have a startup, and want some art lmk, always down to discuss)
It sounds all nice when you list it out but here’s the other side you don’t see
more stressed than ever because I don’t have projects with real users i can show ppl
10x FOMO
Comparing myself to others my age wayyy too much than I care to admit to 27 strangers on a newsletter
Slacking on building/improving real skills like engineering, cyber etc
Huge imposter syndrome when it comes to my cybersecurity skills
Don’t do too many CTFs bec the competitiveness gets too much for me(I’m way too competitive lol)
Not a clue what I want to work on, so I’m all scattered
LinkedIn/insta/tt posts all flopping recently
so yeah, that just to show you, in ig my own small bubble, that not everything can be as it seems.
That’s why July is going to be dedicated to fixing my attentions span and discipline (manual and physical)
Here’s some goals I have that I’m gonna share here for accountability (3 lists in one go, what is up today, idk)
launch an app on the App Store
Make internet dollars
Learn Reddit marketing and other forms of growth
One bug bounty or VDP submission
Have a plan for unuvo
Hit raising goal for other project
Be able to do leetcode mediums without assistance (ik okay, it’s been a while😂)
Have an internship for the fall with a cool startup
Make one project with blender
Gain clarity on what I enjoy, and what I want to work on
Make real connections with cool ppl
I say this at the end of many of these, and my posts but feedback is welcome, and encouraged. I’m really learning here so if your 1,2,3 years ahead (or even 6 months) I’d love to get your advice or take on any/all of this.
see you tomorrow✌️
Love this !
