You probably heard of @LeilaHormozi already, who is currently pushing out a lot of content together with her husband Alex.

I wish I had that information when I started hiring developers.

4 pieces of Leila advice + how it would have kept me from not doing these mistakes. /1 “Likeness blinds a person”. I met a developer from the baltic countries in 2021 and asked him to build a crawler for me.

I liked him. He was entrepreneurial, I felt understood.

He did his own thing, focused on what was fun, instead of what worked. I lost 1 month of work.

Our UX designer just quit without even starting 😮

My mistake 🤦🏻. I relied on one person, who I haven’t worked with prev.

I didn’t follow my principles:
- 1️⃣ hire multiple people
- 2️⃣ choose the best.

Let’s fix this and go on @Upwork.

I’ll show you how to write a good JD
👇 Step 1: a good headline.

My choice: "[web3] UX for elearning portal (full specs) [newcomers welcome]"

Following the AIDA framework:
- Attention: web3. Something new
- Interest: full specs (= easy job)
- Desire: Even a newbie can do it
- Action: click on it

The development of our #web3 #eLearning app has been going on for a day.

Progress so far: we decided on the stack.

We are running with #rubyonrails version 7.

And some other nifty things:
👇 We already said we'll use @_rareblocks . But even if not, we would use @tailwindcss . Advantages:

- It's very easy to make stuff that looks good.
- Just add CSS classes to divs. and there you go (at least that's what the #frontenddeveloper told me ;))
- just in time compilation

What do you do if you have software developers who want to learn something new? ❤️‍🔥

You invent something simple, and include the newest tech. #web3

We are making an e-learning platform with web3 aspects. More soon.

For now: let me show you what specs we gave to the #uxdesign First we started with the mission.

I framed it in a way like @simonsinek did in his evergreen talk: ted.com/talks/simon_si…

- Why: code a useful project with web3 aspects
- How: Code it simple, show progress
- What: Gamified LMS with web3

#softwaredevelopment

Just completed the 21 day #habits challenge, inspired by @hubermanlab.

A group of 6 friends went for it. Each picked 6 Habits.

4 hit most days. 2 didn't.

Insights below: We based our challenge on this video:

- Every habit at least once every 2 days.
- Every day at least 4 habits out of 6
- no punishment if you fail a day
- If you miss tracking for 2 consecutive days you are out of the challenge

Timing of job interviews. The other day I saw on hacker news: a post from tanayagrawal (.substack .com)

“Your interview success can depend on how you schedule your interviews. Here’s how”

👇 Main points made:

- Schedule the interviews in blocks, and try to not hit a time right before/after holidays and long breaks
- Especially this one “I recommend scheduling interviews between 9 AM — 1 PM.”
- The time of the day also plays a role: theguardian.com/law/2011/apr/1…
