For years I lived in a tent. Forests of Canada. Mountains of California. Three months working brutal hours as a seasonal worker, then the rest of the year as a nomad — Mexico, India, Nepal. The deal was simple: work hard, sleep under stars, trade time for time. A day off was a missed paycheck. Total ownership of my hours. I loved that life. Freedom wasn't a concept. It was a random Wednesday at 1pm, on a beach in Oaxaca eating mango with friends. Then came the pandemic. It caught me in Spain. My seasonal job stopped paying what it used to. The road closed. I went to Thailand to learn massage thinking I could trade one honest trade for another. Beautiful detour. Didn't stick. Madrid happened. Waitressing. Precarity. Forty years old serving cañas at 1am wondering how the hell I got here. Something cracked. I enrolled in a bootcamp. Code. Logic. Systems. The opposite of campfires and visas. A company liked my profile and called me mid-course. Now I work remote on a legacy project I don't like. Nobody turns on their camera. Nobody mentors me. I work alone with the AI. I'm not growing. Not professionally. Not as a person. The job pays €1,300. The work bores me. The comfort is dangerous. I'm 40. I'm not afraid of hard work. I'm afraid of fading. So here's the plan: — Build apps from this quiet Galician flat — Save what I can — Camperize a van with my partner — Reach €2k MRR — Then point the wheel south Comfort is not my priority. Freedom is. If you're here grinding for the same reason — silently, slowly, against the gravity of safe — I'm building in public. Follow along.

🚨I’m testing a simple offer 🚨: I will create a 30-60 second product launch video for your product Drop your product URL in the comments I'll DM the 4K video, and would love for your feedback on the results

Day 7 on X. Tiny numbers, but this week I've talked to more builders than in a whole year of LinkedIn. Day job by day, building by night, one-way ticket out of corporate. 🏕️ 🌌 🚐 How are y'all holding up out there? Let's gooo! ✊🏼

Day 6 on X. Though it's been cooking for a while, it's definitely done now. A week since I made the call: own my time, build my own thing. First time as an indie hacker. Still have my 9 to 5, but at this point it's just running on borrowed time. I want to go all in. You know when deep down you just know it's the right path? You just know, right? I don't get half the marketing terms people use. There are languages and tools I haven't learned. Could be overwhelming. Honestly it lights me up instead of scaring me. Horizon looks wide.

Day 5. - 64 followers, barely moved today - most replies I've sent so far - goal still 500 in 30 documenting the slow days too. back at it tomorrow ✊🏼

If you're reading this, you're doing better than you think. Keep going. Freedom on the other side is worth it ✊🏼

Stitch is honestly insane. Going from idea to actual UI in minutes still feels illegal. I love this tool

Starting day 5 on X with 62 followers. Pushing for 500 by end of month. Showing up daily is the plan🤘🏼

Day 4 in. App flow at 70%, design getting a glow up.

Not gonna lie, the blue badge gave me a nice little boost. Sitting at 55 followers, tiny but mine. Let's keep going !!

installing Xcode is the most painful sht I've done in months. Why is this a 15-step quest with auth errors and corrupt downloads? It's 2026, Apple.

I just started taking X seriously. Current numbers: - Day 3 - 39 followers - Goal: 500 in 30 days - Strategy: build in public, share what works, reply with value I’ll document everything here. Let's goooo!

Day 3. Designing. Learning. Overthinking. Redesigning. Let's gooo 🚀

We went from 0 to 2,200 paying customers in under a year by following @ycombinator's 15 rules: 1/ Do things that don't scale. Get your first 10 customers by hand. 2/ Launch now, not when it's "ready". A mediocre product in front of real users teaches you more in a week than 6 months of polishing in the dark. 3/ Charge from day one. If nobody will pay, you don't have a startup, you have a hobby. 4/ Talk to users every single day. The roadmap you need is sitting in your customers' heads, and they'll hand it to you for free 5/ Always hunt the 90/10 solution. For almost any feature there's a way to capture 90% of the value with 10% of the effort. 6/ There are only two real jobs: write code and talk to users. Everything else (conferences, press, VC coffees, corp dev calls) is fake work. 7/ You pick your customers as much as they pick you. 10 users who love you beat 1,000 who kind of like you. 8/ Growth is an output, not a strategy. Grow before product market fit and all you're buying is churn. 9/ Do less, really well. Pick one or two metrics and judge every task against them. 10/ Know if you're default alive. Paul Graham's question: on current growth and current burn, do you reach profitability before the money runs out? 11/ Don't hire until it hurts. Headcount is not progress, it's burn. Every great startup was embarrassingly small for embarrassingly long. 12/ Momentum is the only real moat in year one. Ship something every week, even something tiny. 13/ Every great startup is badly broken at some point. The game isn't avoiding fires, it's how fast you put them out. Again. And again 14/ Ignore your competitors. Startups die of suicide, not murder. In year one, the only company that can kill yours is your own 15/ Startups rarely die from running out of money. They die because the founders fall out. Brutal honesty with your cofounder is the cheapest insurance you'll ever buy Good luck !
