    Toxic mindset: Everything you do must be scalable and easily replicable.

    But that's not how you can be an artist.
    At most an engineer and a businessman, but a low-class one.

    Fck scale, make money first then build a scalable system.

    And of course... don't forget about beer, people, needs... You can make money (or even art!) but destroy the context and then what?! Yes, you'll cry in a lambo or worse, lose all playing alone at a casino.

    Eliminated pathological scaling from my life and it feels so good to get passion instead of scaling. Finally my burgers and beef taste well. No more doing things in a rush to scale them, I don't automate much - even making simple graphics feels good - don't have to drag myself...

    You can play affiliate marketing by lifetime value of the whole operation. Not CLV. Just... how much money in your whole life this will make you.
    Sounds crazy? I think it's less crazy than thinking of affiliate marketing with "on per hour, day, month" basis.

    Boy, how do you know you're on the right path?
    Because I would create that website even if Google never existed.
    :devilish:I'm the one in complianace with Google TOS. Now, it's only matter of time to rank my 21 guns.

    Wrap the "ugly" task of coding in a "beautiful" environment, it takes the edge off the cortisol.

    We can do it! Serotonin I'm coming!
    Light a candle, code in physical notepad (maybe purple or pink one) and put on ambient music + 10/10 clothes.

    I write code on my phone without AI. Funny. :) It's how I can do this even after beers. But I write code only sometimes, when there's real need. Love it. 🍀

    Same thing applies to affiliate marketing as to other things. Your experience might be not enough until you hit 2 or 3 decades of doing different things. Stay in the business. Don't stop because you don't know what you're doing.

    Chrome UX on small screens is terrible compared to Opera with sidebars, more features built-in, gestures. :P

    Corporate social media is damn entropy. Focus on small groups. ;)
    Those big sites give me feeling of meaninglesness, wasted resources and some modern digital cages. :poop:

    Ok, sorry for saying this, it's of course exaggerated.
    You can tune those websites to serve you.
    How? I am learning it.
    You can't just browse TT, YT, IG out of habit, these are really big websites, you can literally lose or win there.

    YT is money making and sharing for value. Best to exchange love in soft way.
    IG is for sexy and playful vids + photos.
    TT is for stupidity.
    FB is for messaging, local stuff and trading goods.
    Reddit is for niche communities and brutal honesty.

    I compulsively read 100s of pages of text on the internet every single day...
    Then I wondered why I can't read books, study, look at text offline. :D
    Oh what a hidden self-sabotage.

    Being in 20s can be crazy! You can fail at literally everything to discover what you're good at...
    Heard plenty of crazy stories of people in their 20s.
    30s might be even crazier.

    Freedom at work - you are free to do it the way you'd do it.
    Really, you can do even the most challenging sh*t like making a phone call.
    How I'd do it? I'd tell someone to do it and they'd do it.

    One of my colleagues spoke like Google Ads Expert.
    During one of the conversations he revealed "$1000 monthly is a big advertising budget".
    Another one asked me about a degree when I was interviewed for a role to setup some funny things together on a computer.

    My conclusion is that market locally here is a joke.

    If you can't face mistakes, you can't face the challenge.
    If you blame people and not yourself, you're a fool.

    - Question: Is youtube content farm a business?
    - Response: A business implies sustainable value creation, reliable revenue streams, actual assets. A YouTube channel is more like a speculative venture riding platform volatility. You're not building equity or durable competitive advantage - you're exploiting temporary algorithmic inefficiencies before they close or the platform changes the rules.

    You're not just renting the list of watchers—you're actively growing it for the platform while they let you skim some revenue off the top. Every subscriber you gain, every view you generate, every minute of watch time—that's value accruing primarily to YouTube. You're doing their user acquisition and engagement work for them.

    Ideation -> fun.
    Hard work -> outsource.

    Never do everything by yourself in complex projects unless you want to spend 15 hours a day on your computer and feel burnt out after a month.

    This is the only thing I learned from spending last 5 years and earning literally few dozen dollars a day. It was like $20 a day on average. Painful to swallow.

    It's better to have working, "ugly" code than beautiful code that never will be executed.

    I want to have the f*king ugliest code ever written, but work, compile, promote itself and earn bucks.

    99% have dreams but don't take action - they stay in their comfort zone and plan for "someday."
    Of the 1% who do start, most quickly give up - they lack consistency, and the first difficulties discourage them.
    Only a fraction of a percent persevere - and they are the ones who achieve all the significant things.
