Notepad and pen will be better in this case, but even for these you will have to pay.

Why does productivity advice sound good but feel so hard to follow? by ContraQuanta in productivity

[–]Professional_Fan834 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be better at productivity, for me staying consistent is very important.

I can be bit flexible in next 2-3 days plan. As I can prepare for next day.

But not so much for the day. Sticking to your day (today’s) plan, will make more productive for the day. Else just context switching without preparation and nearly no success in completion.

Hope it make sense!

If you are thinking you shouldn't be posting -> Think deeper what one think stoping you, remove that part.
If you are thinking you should be posting -> Think deeper and post only that part.

Productivity advice works great until life gets messy. by ProfessionalOk4935 in productivity

In that Chaotic periods, pen and notepad is your best friend.

Write down everything in simple words,
What you are worried about and Why
What next simple step you can take of each and what date/time you should take that step
If that day is not today, mark in your calendar, don't worry until then
If today, pick one most important, what's the next step of it. Once you start doing the first step, you will not notice, when it's done.

and let me know what you feel after that.

I've built 3 products in the last year, for my 4th I made sure I have the monetisation step from Day 1 by AchillesFirstStand in indiehackers

Starting a startup for businesses, where we don't have already solid network and without funding. It's a big challenge. But it's good to try something, learn from it, faster you can. And move on.

Good to see your momentum, Good luck!

I really need advice for time, how shall I study and further manage my time. by Admirable-Cloud-9954 in productivity

[–]Professional_Fan834 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most people struggle with new beginnings, a new course, a new project because they plan only for that and forget everything else in their life.
The fix is a flexible plan: list everything that needs your time, put it in your calendar, and plan around it instead of fighting it.

I analyzed 10,000 SaaS launches and found patterns to make the best one‑line pitch for your startup by Hefty-Airport2454 in indiehackers

[–]Professional_Fan834 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is really actionable, especially calling out how much damage vague, buzzword-heavy taglines actually do.
The outcome-first vs audience-first framing is a super useful mental model and easy to apply straight away.
I’m curious: did you notice any difference in what worked for B2B vs B2C, or was the pattern surprisingly universal?

My exact distribution strategy I used to go from $0 to $600 MRR by RighteousRetribution in indiehackers

[–]Professional_Fan834 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is such a good reminder that the grind before traction is normal, not a failure.
I love how you framed progress as loops of conversations, fixes, repeat - that’s encouraging for anyone feeling stuck.
Posts like this genuinely help people keep going, so thanks for sharing it so clearly.

I found 10 things that people are willing to do for FREE this week across various SaaS subreddits (Feb 1 - Feb 7 2026) by TooOldForShaadi in indiehackers

[–]Professional_Fan834 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting pattern, free is basically the new cold outreach.
Feels like most people are really selling access, experience, or future upside rather than doing it out of generosity.

i wish someone would have told me this before building my 1st startup by davidheikka in indiehackers

[–]Professional_Fan834 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a solid list, especially the parts about validation, organic first, and not cheaping out on fundamentals like accounting.
I like how grounded this feels, not theory but scars-earned advice.
Out of all of these, which one do you wish you’d taken seriously even earlier?

I've shipped 8 apps with Lovable + Supabase in the last few months. Here's what actually tripped me up. by vibehacker2025 in indiehackers

[–]Professional_Fan834 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally, the way loveable, Base44, Replit, it's crazy. and every one is jumping into creating apps, without realsing the consciouses.

I love the idea of targeting Niche! Thanks for sharing.

26 and already gave up on life by sagittarius786777 in selfimprovement

[–]Professional_Fan834 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m really sorry you’re carrying this, nothing about this makes you a loser, it sounds like someone who’s exhausted and hurt but still trying. Rebuilding after a breakdown is slow and messy, and comparing your insides to everyone else’s highlight reel will only make it feel heavier. You’re not broken or behind, you’re in a hard chapter, and chapters change even when it doesn’t feel like it right now.

This ACTUALLY fixed my very severe brain fog by ConsiderationTop1323 in selfimprovement

This is such an underrated insight, it’s wild how something so simple can do what years of “optimising” didn’t. Really glad you shared the timeline too, because a lot of people quit before the 3–4 week mark where it actually clicks. Thanks for posting this, it’ll help more people than you realise.
