StockoMJ

Week 3-4 Learnings The need for deliberate progress and planning The last 2 weeks have been a whirlwind. Started off really weak, honestly questioning everything, and full of self doubt. Gained some clarity by the end of week 3 and now seem to finally be on a more stable footing. I think I have narrowed down to a set of core features that I want to build for the MVP and turned my mood around. Been extremely productive since the last 10 days, in the context of stockoMJ, the game changer has been to finally focus on chart reading and understanding. Also, pivoting my approach/goals away from busy work and fringe components like website, youtube, ads etc to core problem solving. ...

Week 2 Learnings Using a hammer to swat a fly This week was a mixed bag. Spent a tremendous amount of time on work, really impressed with my own stamina and focus.

I need to be careful of that. ...

Week 1 Learnings Lots of busy work and not much of a plan I got a bunch of work done, and if I’m not being harsh on myself, I can say that I did achieve some goals.
