Lemonada. Can you force yourself to ship something? Can you force yourself to, you know,

Are there practical checkpoints to stop consuming new information until I ship something real?

I think you're in a good place.

You've been learning.

You've got some ideas.

And I think it's wise to set up a system that kind of

forces you to publish. I use the timeline of every two weeks in the introduction. It doesn't have to be

that, of course. But I think what you can do is kind of bookend your week. Maybe you reserve half a day

for some fresh material. You're learning stuff. You're taking those

course modules. You're watching those YouTube videos, whatever it is. But the rest of the week is

implementation mode. And so if you get into Wednesday and you see another shiny tutorial you
