Hey! I'm Janis Ozolins, the creator behind all this. Here's my about page.
Deliver. Overdeliver. Never underdeliver.
A lot of problems disappear once you stop imagining them.
Work towards your dream job.
Want change? Take action.
A worthwhile search.
Both feel good in the short term, but only one will feel good in the long term.
You've got this.
A great product is essential, but great marketing is optional.
No discomfort? No breakthoguhs.
Earn your tools.
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.
Notification came, and the focus went.
Get more attention by opening up.
Life.
Slice and start.
Start now and avoid regret.
Complaining costs time.
Sign of a good project.
Why do people leave their well-paid jobs for funky side hustles?
Ship and iterate.
Consistent trying can change your mind.
Nike is right.
Move the ball forward every single day – no matter how small.
Breakthroughs take time.
Align your actions with the reputation you want—and use the internet to scale it.
Without naivety, I wouldn’t have built this creative online business.
A day in the life of most people.
To-do lists require work, they don’t do the work.
Luck requires preparation.
Find your people, one way or another.

Love has more patience, so pursue projects that excite you.
"I'm listening."
Human nature.
“There are some people who naturally uplift our energy - the trick is finding them.” – Ali Abdaal
Doing is overestimated. Quitting is underestimated.
The tipping point for growth.
The path to regret.
Keep going.
What could be that regret?
Try and expect that you'll need to try some more.
How most full-time creatives start.
Action.
2 options
More tasks. More switching. More lost time.
Drop something. Say no. Or burnout.
All good things, but one is the real needle mover.
Start now. It’s not too late.
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.
Most projects be like this.
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.
Promise less, deliver more.
Obsession is your ultimate advantage.
It creates momentum and keeps the flame alive for your dream.
Do it before doubt destroys it.
That time of the year.
Small things can have immense value.
The world moves on. Ignorance leaves you behind.
Show up, every damn day, no matter how small.
Don't enjoy the corporate world? Become one.
Plug and play.
Be aware if you have too many answers.
Give it an honest try.
Is there a better way?
When you sit down to work (but don't work)
;)
Good products bridge gaps.
Start with what you have.
Procrastination that feels like “work”.
