[Name Update]

Present Self (?) Came up with a potential new name for the idea. I like it because there is both a .com URL and a .ai URL, which I'm seeing is increasingly rare. I think the name captures the essence of the idea and still leaves some room for play and intrigue.

[Emotional State]

I feel quite frustrated right now. I think it's because I'm feeling that constant "one step forward, two steps back" reality of building.

Here's the good news:

  • I've rearchitected the entire database structure and have gotten the weekly analysis to work on dummy data
  • I'm learning Make.com pretty well – it will be a useful skill no matter what

Here's where I'm annoyed/stuck:

  • having to redo the entire daily logging scenarios. pre-annoyed at the thought that they won't actually sync well because it's trying to put data into a single row but based on when the log comes in – just writing it out feels like there'll be an error lol
  • wondering if i need to just build this as an app, but i feel resistance to that as well. it only gets more complex as you build, I can get it to function in this simple state.

Here's what I feel resistance towards:

  • marketing – I feel like I don't even really know how to approach the "content strategy" for this. Maybe I should just make a rough outline and start recording lol
