B1: Weekend Bonus: Hit 25K Followers (And Why I Barely Try)

from Founder Reality · host George Pu

Weekend rambling thoughts - no script, just real talk.Hit 25,000 Twitter followers this week. Feels surreal because I barely put any time into it.I don't even have Twitter on my phone. Have an extension that blocks it so I don't get addicted. Only check it on desktop once in a while.The weird thing: Sometimes what you don't focus on performs better than what you do.My main software business? Revenue was just keeping the lights on before we pivoted. But content? Breaking out a little bit.Random thoughts I've been having:Why everyone needs multiple income streams in the AI world (even Hollywood actors)My investing journey as a founder who used to think stocks were a distractionWhy I check my bank statements for $17 fees (people call it stingy, I call it progress)The Travis Kalanick approach I'm rethinkingThis is the first weekend bonus show. Shorter episodes, more casual, no stress about topics. Just whatever's on my mind.Starting next week I'll be reading questions from listeners, so hit me up on Twitter @TheGeorgePu or email [email protected] if you want me to ramble about something specific.Weekend episodes when inspiration strikes. Main episodes Monday/Wednesday/Friday at 6am EST.
