Hey guys, it’s almost been a month since I started my journey as an indie hacker. Time flies.

I just want to quickly say there are a lot of ups and downs building a startup.

Some days, you ship a feature and everything clicks. You feel like you’re on top of the world, like you're building something that matters.

Other days? Nothing works. Code breaks. Users don't get it. You try to explain yourself, but still they don’t get it. You question everything.

That's startup life.

Here's what I'm telling myself: The downs don't mean I’m failing. They mean I’m learning. Everything, even if small, teaches me something. Every time I’m explaining something and people react with confusion, well, that tells me I need to be clearer.

The key is to keep showing up. Keep chipping at it. Keep iterating.

Most people quit during the down days and that’s why they fail. Not because the idea was bad, but because the founder gave up when things got hard. It’s only been 29 days for me, but it’s something I need to keep in mind.

I'm posting every weekday. See you tomorrow!
