Hey! I'm Janis Ozolins, the creator behind all this. Here's my about page.
How most full-time creatives start.
Action.
Obsession is your ultimate advantage.
Ship and iterate.
Align your actions with the reputation you want—and use the internet to scale it.
More tasks. More switching. More lost time.
Complaining costs time.
Doing is overestimated. Quitting is underestimated.
Consistent trying can change your mind.
“There are some people who naturally uplift our energy - the trick is finding them.” – Ali Abdaal
Plug and play.
Promise less, deliver more.
Keep going.
Notification came, and the focus went.
Love has more patience, so pursue projects that excite you.
Want change? Take action.
What could be that regret?
Breakthroughs take time.
Most projects be like this.
Try and expect that you'll need to try some more.
Find your people, one way or another.
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.
Procrastination that feels like “work”.
It creates momentum and keeps the flame alive for your dream.
Life.
The world moves on. Ignorance leaves you behind.
Move the ball forward every single day – no matter how small.
The tipping point for growth.
A worthwhile search.
That time of the year.
Honest project plan.
All good things, but one is the real needle mover.
Why do people leave their well-paid jobs for funky side hustles?
To-do lists require work, they don’t do the work.
Small things can have immense value.
Slice and start.
"I'm listening."
Start now and avoid regret.
Drop something. Say no. Or burnout.
Luck requires preparation.
Is there a better way?
Be aware if you have too many answers.
Both feel good in the short term, but only one will feel good in the long term.
Nike is right.
The path to regret.
Show up, every damn day, no matter how small.
Start with what you have.
Earn your tools.
Deliver. Overdeliver. Never underdeliver.
When you sit down to work (but don't work)
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.
Work towards your dream job.
You've got this.
Do it before doubt destroys it.
Start now. It’s not too late.
A great product is essential, but great marketing is optional.
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.
2 options
It makes no sense that we don’t do them.
Without naivety, I wouldn’t have built this creative online business.
Sign of a good project.
Good products bridge gaps.
Get more attention by opening up.
Don't enjoy the corporate world? Become one.
No discomfort? No breakthoguhs.
Give it an honest try.
;)
A lot of problems disappear once you stop imagining them.
Human nature.
A day in the life of most people.
