Today, I want to share a personal milestone that's been 93 projects in the making. Yes, you read that right – 93 projects! 🚀
I'm thrilled to announce that my latest venture, Easy UI PRO, has just hit two significant benchmarks:
20+ stars on GitHub ⭐
Over 1,000 visitors to the project 👥
This journey has been nothing short of a rollercoaster, filled with valuable lessons that I'd like to share with you all.
1. Embrace Failure as a Catalyst for Success
One of the most crucial lessons I've learned is this: the faster you fail, catch up, and start something new, the FASTER you succeed. Each of those 92 projects that didn't quite make it wasn't a failure – they were stepping stones. They taught me invaluable lessons about:
What users really want
How to build more efficiently
The importance of market fit
Don't be afraid to fail. Be afraid of not learning from those failures.
2. The Power of Persistence
93 projects. Let that sink in. Many would have given up long before reaching this number. But persistence is key in the tech world. Every "failed" project was a building block for Easy UI PRO. It's a testament to the fact that success often comes to those who simply refuse to give up.
3. Take Breaks to Boost Productivity
Counter-intuitive as it may seem, taking good, long breaks has been crucial to my success. These breaks allowed me to:
- Refresh my mind
- Gain new perspectives
- Return to work with renewed energy and creativity
Don't underestimate the power of stepping away from your desk. Sometimes, the best ideas come when you're not actively seeking them.
4. Simplicity is Key
Here's a truth bomb: Most problems have simpler solutions than we think. It's our minds that tend to overcomplicate things without reason. With Easy UI PRO, I focused on simplifying UI development, and that's what resonated with users.
Remember: If you can't explain your product simply, you don't understand it well enough.
5. Community Matters
Reaching 20+ stars and 1k+ visitors isn't just about the numbers. It's about the community that's forming around Easy UI PRO. Each star, each visitor, represents a developer who found value in my work. And that's the real reward.
To everyone who's been part of this journey – thank you. Your support, feedback, and engagement have been invaluable.
And to those still on their journey to find their successful project – keep going. Your 93rd (or 23rd or 193rd) project might be the one that changes everything.
