50: Doing the Hard Things First
Derrick continues to reinvent himself with his new product, Level, and sporting a, "I work for myself beard." He took a vacation to canoe and camp instead of code. It's always a refreshing experience for him to get away from work from time to time. Now, Derrick is back to writing code and organizing tasks in Levelland.
Ben also went on vacation, but before doing so, he realized no sales for Tuple had come in that week. So, he made an effort to call prospective clients and was able to sell six annual licenses. Now, like Derrick, he is working on things that are hard to achieve. But if they can make them happen, then they will be really good.
If feeling overwhelmed, write everything down, break into chunks, and organize them
Find a visible way to make sure you are making progress and staying on track
Ben wants to talk to other CEOs of small companies to find out what are they focused on and paying attention to because there is so much to do
Don't beat up yourself over mistakes, just keep making progress
AoP podcast is like therapy and leaning on each other for support during this journey; staying sane during the new company/product process
Prioritize Properly: Get sleep or you're operating at a fraction at what you could be
Break up your day and work schedule into 2-3 hour segments; if you need to get something done, spend less time doing it
Teams contacted Ben about participating in the Tuple alpha; spots are still available, so contact him
Company or founder retreats are a way to get creative, think outside the box, and bond over shared challenges and struggles
Ben's team, Sam Deane, including has been cranking away on its native app to create the initial set-up, layout, and architecture
Ben tweeted about how to get up to speed on Mac OS development; considered corporate overlord's job to create education and training, so it doesn't get done
Looking back on a year if AoP: Derrick overcame his fear of the microphone, and they're keeping it real; humbled and happy that people find it useful
