I fell into the OpenClaw trap

I fell into the OpenClaw trap

This post was written on Writizzy.
A simple, fast, and beautiful blogging platform.

Today, I woke up motivated, but a little stressed: I had a lot on my plate.

The timing has been pretty bad for me recently: I'm just starting to recover from a long flu, and right before that, I'd accepted a short freelance gig due this week.

On top of that, I sold a big Product Review this week on Uneed, and I need to test the product and write a blog post about it.

I also have a new product launching today on Uneed: WaitShip.

And of course, I have all my projects to maintain and move forward! Writizzy in particular: my cofounder is counting on me, and I've been falling behind lately πŸ˜•.

But then... OpenClaw showed up (again!) in my feed.

I got lost on Kitze's Twitter account, and like every time, I got infected by his slightly crazy energy, and found myself spiraling down an endless rabbit hole πŸ˜‚.

I even went as far as buying a new domain name and starting a new project related to OpenClaw, before coming back to my senses 🀦🏻.

More than ever, staying focused is becoming difficult: it's probably going to become the #1 strength of the best indie hackers. Being able to stay laser focused on a project or task without constantly getting distracted.

Anyway, back to workβ€”I need to work on Writizzy's new discoverability feature 🫑
