Depends on your field like if you're doing App Development, you don't need Maths. Where you'll probably need Maths is in Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning, Blockchain, or Low-Level Development

Let's set the goal to reach 333 followers before the end of February 💪
I don't know why but I feel like I am not growing anymore on X/Twitter.
I reached 300 followers on 1st March and I have only got to 302 followers.
Like really, I was gaining 40-50 followers per week in February.
But, I only got 2 followers in 4 days of March.
Time for work!
Another milestone achieved, I have officially reached 300 followers.
February was a rollercoaster.
A lot happened in February:
- One of my post got "viral"
- I reached 200 and then 300 followers.
- Started my newsletter
- Created my portfolio website.
See what happens next?

I had a blog with 80+ articles.
My main focus of that blog wasn't SEO but just writing content.
And still...when I looked at the Google Search Console, I found out that it's doing pretty well.
Which makes me think...should I start a blog with main focus as SEO?

#100DaysOfDribbble
: Designing a development agency website's landing page 🔥
Have NO MOTIVATION whatsoever to work, but I am still here posting my work...
Why? Because success doesn't come to those who work when they want but to those who work when they don't want to.
Should I start a blog?

#daretoshare24
I think it'll be a good idea to start one because:
- I just LOVE writing
- I have some really good SEO skills
- It'll be a great SEO practice as well
Sleep for 8 hours not 6
Write for 2 hours not 4
Build for 4 hours not 6
Learn for 2 hours not 4
You are a human, not a machine.
Here's how I manage my time:
2 hour writing
4 hour design work
1 hour social media engagement
1 hour cold outreach
2 hour learning (from YouTube)
Everyone on social media tells you to create a personal brand.
But they don't tell you how.
I've created a full guide on creating your personal brand as a product designer.
I'll be launching it tomorrow for FREE!

Buttons are so important in web design. They literally set the tone and brand presence in your design.
So help me choose which buttons style I should be using for my personal portfolio.
If you don’t have time to build your portfolio from scratch.
If you are lazy to design your portfolio.
If you want a website to just go ahead and showcase your case-studies.

I have consumed an enormous amount of content related to my niche (design & marketing)
But that doesn't matter because you'll forget it some time later.
Unless you take notes of it.
So, the next time you watch a valuable video, or read a really good article:
TAKE NOTES OF IT
Today I:
→ Wrote a newsletter email
→ Posted a long-form on LinkedIn
→ Completed my portfolio website
and still I am feeling like I haven't done anything.
IMPOSTER SYNDROME 🙅♂️

: Designing a development agency website's landing page 🔥
Have NO MOTIVATION whatsoever to work, but I am still here posting my work...
Why? Because success doesn't come to those who work when they want but to those who work when they don't want to.
One year ago, I was:
• Lost
• Wasting time
• No clear goals
Now I:
• Have a plan
• Clear goals
• High-paying skills
• Making money online
What's your excuse?
Unpopular opinion: "Time is not money"
Yeah, you heard it right. Time is not money, but it can MAKE you money.
If you spend your time in yourself, and your business, then it's an "investment".
If you spend it scrolling through Instagram reels, then it's a "waste"

Quick question for all the designers here:
In the context of a productized agency website, should I have their packages on the landing page?
Or should I have their services and then a button to see the packages?
Why should business owners reconsider their brand and website design?
→ Boost Engagement and Conversions
→ Build Trust and Credibility
→ Reduce Bounce Rates and Frustration
→ Stand Out from the Competition

Are you bad at writing? No problem. I was also bad at it first.
Here's some things you can do to instantly improve your writing:
- Straight-to-the-point
- Use formatting (bullet-points, bold, italics, etc.)
- Avoid long-paragraphs
- Write a good hook (does 40% of your job)
Because of my past in software development,
I've always been skeptical about no-code.
But now, I use no-code extensively in my products.
Here are some of the no-code tools I use:
Web Development:
@framer
Automation:
@zapier
Data Management/Forms:
@airtable
Emails:
@loops
@typefully
I am in.
I was looking for a tool like Typefully. But, I just couldn't purchase it for my personal use.
I'll be very glad if I'll win AirPods Max, but what I really want is, is the free lifetime access to Typefully.
🧵 Are you struggling to land clients? If yes, this post is for you!
In this post, I am going to be providing you a strategy that I have used extensively to land multiple clients.
I like to call this strategy the “ghost design” strategy.
Why? You’ll understand.

Here's this one thing that can literally increase your sales overnight
And this is your pricing models and strategies
So, for this, I have put together this guide for SaaS pricing strategy!
To get the guide:
- Like the post (optional)
- Follow me (optional)
- Check the link 👇
Just sent an email with a broken link... and then sent another email with the correct link.
I know I am stupid, but we, humans learn from our mistakes.
So what I learned from this stupid mistake:
"Always check out links before sending out emails to hundreds of subscribers"
Writing on X shouldn't have to be hard.
Always:
1. Write your hooks as 1-liners
2. Position your thoughts as facts
3. Jump straight into the main point
4. Make posts "breathe" → space it out
5. Invite comments by asking P.S. questions
P.S. Was this post valuable?

Here's the Dan Koe's 2 hour writing framework that I personally use:

- Repurpose your content into:

→ LinkedIn/Instagram Carousels
→ 3 Tweets

You just became a writer
I am OBSESSED with writing!
or more like: I BECAME obsessed with writing!
I started my newsletter a few weeks ago, and now I can't resist writing an email every single day.
But I also know that my audience don't want an email from everyday.
What should I do?

Actually, I have an app idea and a perfect plan to execute it. I don't think I should be showing or telling it, but, it's just awesome 💯
