2026: A Blank Page
It's January 1st, 2026, and I'm staring at a blank page again. I love this feeling. Most people fear starting over—they cling to what they've built, terrified of blank pages. But I've learned something different across my 47 years: the ability to start fresh isn't a curse, it's a superpower. And what's changed isn't my love for fresh starts—it's what I want to write on them. The old ambitions (money, status, achievement) are losing their grip, making room for intangible ones: quality time with family, mental resilience, physical strength, the luxury of staying calm and getting bored. These are the real wealth that only a few achieve. I still love running "format c:" on my life, just like I did on my old 80286 PC as a kid. 2026 is completely blank, and that's exactly how I want it. Here's to writing this year with more wisdom, more focus, more intention.

AI turned me into a one-person company. I built DemoPolish.com in under a week—code, design, copy, go-to-market strategy, all of it.

Building DemoPolish: 5 Days From Idea to Launch
I built a complete SaaS product—marketing site, Laravel frontend, and Python backend—in under a week. Not because I was rushing, but because building from scratch forces you to strip away everything that doesn't matter. DemoPolish transforms rough screen recordings into polished demos in 60 seconds, and the process of building it reminded me why starting fresh is the fastest way to grow as a developer.
Subtract to Multiply: The Hidden Power of Removing What Holds You Back
Most people try to improve by adding more—more habits, more routines, more commitments. But what if the real path forward is deletion? In this post, I share why removing things from your life creates more progress than piling on new ones, and the three-step process I use to run a radical deletion audit.
Pendulums: The Invisible Energy Vampires Stealing Your Focus
Most people spend their lives feeding systems that were never designed to help them succeed. Learn how to identify these energy-draining Pendulums and break free to walk your own path.
