Hey! I'm Janis Ozolins, the creator behind all this. Here's my about page.
Small things can have immense value.
A worthwhile search.
Deliver. Overdeliver. Never underdeliver.
Action.
Human nature.
You've got this.
The path to regret.
To-do lists require work, they don’t do the work.
Is there a better way?
Want change? Take action.
How most full-time creatives start.
Drop something. Say no. Or burnout.
"I'm listening."
Luck requires preparation.
Do it before doubt destroys it.
Complaining costs time.
All good things, but one is the real needle mover.
Consistent trying can change your mind.
Start with what you have.
Procrastination that feels like “work”.
Ship and iterate.
Honest project plan.
Curiosity is the ultimate cheat code. It makes learning effortless and turns hard work into play. While others force focus, you’re pulled in naturally.
That time of the year.
Don't enjoy the corporate world? Become one.
Plug and play.
Without naivety, I wouldn’t have built this creative online business.
Good products bridge gaps.
More tasks. More switching. More lost time.
Work towards your dream job.
The tipping point for growth.
Get more attention by opening up.
Life.
Find your people, one way or another.
Nike is right.
Love has more patience, so pursue projects that excite you.
Start now and avoid regret.
Doing is overestimated. Quitting is underestimated.
Earn your tools.
Show up, every damn day, no matter how small.
No discomfort? No breakthoguhs.
A great product is essential, but great marketing is optional.
What could be that regret?
Promise less, deliver more.
;)
Start now. It’s not too late.
Both feel good in the short term, but only one will feel good in the long term.
When you sit down to work (but don't work)
It makes no sense that we don’t do them.
One of the things I enjoy most about being self-employed is the freedom to bounce around, act on my ideas, and not get stuck in bureaucracy.
Sign of a good project.
Obsession is your ultimate advantage.
A day in the life of most people.
Why do people leave their well-paid jobs for funky side hustles?
Slice and start.
Be aware if you have too many answers.
In the short term, chasing curiosity might not always make sense – no clear payoff, and you might even look silly. But keep going – it’ll take longer than you think, but it’s worth it.
