I like to focus on small wins.
In short, creating something that I'm already capable of and that I can start and finish fast.
So I usually use my knowledge, interests, and complexity of the idea as a constraint for ideation.
From there I either try to solve a problem from a group/community I'm already part of (like board gamers for example) or my own problems.
How do you ideate for a side projects?

Looking for a way to easily visualize my tasks and habits. Does anybody use the Momentum extension?
One thing that helped me a lot with my habits and tasks was a physical whiteboard. I'm looking for a digital replacement and the main thing for me is visibility.
I don't want to open it every day to see the data but to have it in a place that's constantly visible.
Does anybody use http://momentumdash.com/? It looks close to what I want.

I'm a board game design wannabe :D Never had the time but I love it and hope to do it someday.
There is a group on Reddit that might give you better answers than here.
Any board games creator here?

One idea that I had in the past was to store all my "small" learnings (bad business to not buy anymore, good times for purchases, tips, etc) in a personal AI assistant and have it remind me at the right time.
What would a truly useful AI personal assistant look like to you?

Storyworthy, Matthew Dicks and Skin in the Game, Taleb.
I usually read 2 so I can switch when I'm not in the mood for one of them.

I'm not sure because I haven't used Evernote, but I believe Notion b2b approach with its main function (Knowledge base) being perfect for small/medium businesses helped a lot.
That's how I first discovered it and now I also use for my personal projects.
Why did Notion success while Evernote failed?

In my case, it was meetings. I couldn't find any automation for it.
After I quit to start building my products, I think it's research.
I'm considering some automation for idea generation or research storage and consumption but not sure yet.
What does consume your time and energy the most?

I rather learn on my own but I think it is different from person to person.
In my case, what works is finding a project that needs the knowledge and start doing it.
Do you prefer to learn on your own or through a more formal education?

It couldn't be more accurate.
I would go as far as to say, "Putting yourself out there is the #1 success metric".
Putting yourself out there is the #1 success metric for startups. Convince me otherwise.

I relate a lot.
I don't think you get over the fear, but you learn to do what you need with it.
3 learnings I had that can help:
- Know for a fact those first tries will be bad and the only way to improve is by building, showing and getting feedback.
- Those scary "others" that are going to point fingers at our work doesn't exist. People will either ignore it or be supportive / offer...
How did you get over the fear of failure?

I've built two businesses from 0 to 100 employees remote first.
You lose a bit of the in-person companionship and some meetings/collaborations are harder.
The benefits are the obvious flexibility, easy for deep work, no need to commute, etc.
But the most important thing is understanding it's a different format of a company and create a culture that supports it. We had happy hour every Friday...
Pros and cons of a remote first company: Go!

I believe it works. It's a bit niche for sure but the marketplace helps.
If I'm not mistaken Loom and Grammarly started mainly as an extension.

I'm prohibited from looking into the comments. Too many newsletters already 😅 🙈.
What's your favourite niche newsletter?

I have used Copy.ai, and it looks promising but to be fair you need to invest some time to learn it properly and I haven't yet. So I can't say for sure.
What is the best AI copywriting tool?

What is the objective? For more complex subjects I would rather have a video for learning, for opinions, short teaching and others text.
What do you prefer video content or static content?

Don't get attached to your project. If it's not working, either go to a different one or pivot.
If you could give only 1 advice to yourself at the beginning of your startup, what would it be?
