Hey! I'm Janis Ozolins, the creator behind all this. Here's my about page.
Drop something. Say no. Or burnout.
Complaining costs time.
Without naivety, I wouldn’t have built this creative online business.
You've got this.
Human nature.
Don't enjoy the corporate world? Become one.
Action.
To-do lists require work, they don’t do the work.
All good things, but one is the real needle mover.
Obsession is your ultimate advantage.
Want change? Take action.
Find your people, one way or another.
Start now and avoid regret.
Small things can have immense value.
Get more attention by opening up.
Notification came, and the focus went.
When you sit down to work (but don't work)
A lot of problems disappear once you stop imagining them.
Life.
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.

Nike is right.
"I'm listening."
The path to regret.
The world moves on. Ignorance leaves you behind.
Align your actions with the reputation you want—and use the internet to scale it.
Most projects be like this.
A day in the life of most people.
Work towards your dream job.
Show up, every damn day, no matter how small.
Start now. It’s not too late.
Promise less, deliver more.
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.
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.
A great product is essential, but great marketing is optional.
Slice and start.
Plug and play.
Good products bridge gaps.
No discomfort? No breakthoguhs.
The tipping point for growth.
That time of the year.
What could be that regret?
Give it an honest try.
Breakthroughs take time.
Try and expect that you'll need to try some more.
Sign of a good project.
How most full-time creatives start.
Why do people leave their well-paid jobs for funky side hustles?
Ship and iterate.
Do it before doubt destroys it.
It makes no sense that we don’t do them.
A worthwhile search.
Honest project plan.
Is there a better way?
Move the ball forward every single day – no matter how small.
Start with what you have.
Procrastination that feels like “work”.
2 options
More tasks. More switching. More lost time.
“There are some people who naturally uplift our energy - the trick is finding them.” – Ali Abdaal
Deliver. Overdeliver. Never underdeliver.
Consistent trying can change your mind.
Luck requires preparation.
It creates momentum and keeps the flame alive for your dream.
Love has more patience, so pursue projects that excite you.
Doing is overestimated. Quitting is underestimated.
Both feel good in the short term, but only one will feel good in the long term.
Keep going.
Be aware if you have too many answers.
