I think this is something much of the HN crowd can relate to, starting projects and not completing. Great work on finally launching a product. Hopefully I can get to the other side of the tunnel. My goal for this year is to just bring in $1 from something outside my full-time job and hope that snowballs into more motivation and a growing business.
- rblatz 11y agoSame here. To motivate myself, I plan on messaging you on here early December to see if you've reached your goal. Hopefully I will have too.

Over the course of 2 yrs I sold over 20 copies for $5 a pop...not retirement money but very satisfying :)
- pyrrhotech 11y agoI've never made $1 from anything other than my full time job though I've tried several times. It's much harder than it looks... Then again even lots of successful consumer startups took half a decade or more before they made their first $1 as well
