As a person that’s getting into business and having no idea on what to do, I sometimes wonder whether it’s best to localize or cater towards to a foreign audience? What I mean by that is should I cater more to westerners who aren’t as risk averse to buying stuff online versus starting a business … Continue reading Market

Finding Clients
Getting the first client is really hard. I always feel like the service I’m trying to provide is a solution that’s looking for a problem. With the rate of how I’m approaching these businesses, I’m not going to get any clients any time soon. There’s one thing I’m currently doing right now, and it’s looking … Continue reading Finding Clients
Visibility
I recently watched a video from Rayo who’s a colleague from work. It was about business and luck, but I would like to focus on his perspective on visibility. As a entrepreneur who’s trying to breach the first profit margin, I wonder what does it take to get the first client? Is it the product … Continue reading Visibility
Budding Start
My partner and I started working on a simple side hustle we can do outside of our 9 to 5. She handles the creative work, since I can't design for shit. So, I had to compensate by finding clients and making a deal with them. We're trying to get our first paying customer and it … Continue reading Budding Start
Pivot
I’ve written eight articles for Project Arbiter and it has been difficult. It’s hard to be consistent. It’s also depressing to not have ideas on what to write for the next articles. I knew being consistent with a lifelong project was tough, but I didn’t know it would hit me this hard. Life moves on … Continue reading Pivot

The generic advice most successful people give out is to improve our systems and processes. I tried following that advice because who doesn't want to be successful too? This week of Project Arbiter has been a testament to that advice. I'm incredibly grateful for how far I've progressed with my other projects in one month. … Continue reading Crash
Rest Days
Who would've thought the week I allotted for breaks turned out to be the most productive? Like, what the hell is going on?! I don't understand! I had laser-focused attention, met my deadlines earlier, went on a date, and followed my routine with military discipline. It's crazy how much mental pressure was removed by reframing … Continue reading Rest Days
Disappoinment
I planned this week with lessons I’ve learned in the past entries—being careful not to overwhelm myself. I’ve broken my tasks down into actionable items, limited my goals into three, and allotted a lot of time for each. The ending? A huge disappointment. The week sped through like a car on a highway, it was … Continue reading Disappoinment
Lazy Days
This fourth entry of Project Arbiter is definitely one of the entries of all time. It wasn’t because I gave up on the project, nor was it because I tried another new shiny object. Most definitely it isn’t because something outrageous happened. It’s a different story entirely. From the beginning of the week, I was … Continue reading Lazy Days
Embracing Boredom
There’s ONE thing I changed that made all the difference in my productivity this week. It’s nothing complicated too. It’s so simple that everybody could do it. It’s embracing boredom. I came across a video on YouTube, where it made me remember the books I read about mindfulness, stillness, and peace. I know the video … Continue reading Embracing Boredom
