Reduce your workload. Do you have a not-to-do list for 2021?

If you don't, that should be your goal for the new years. I'm having my first baby (boy) in January 2021. One of my teammates told me that if I continue the current path of "hustle until my head hurts" in 2021, I might not be able to see my baby grow up. I'm not old, but with the passing of Tony Hsieh, his advice felt more real than ever before. So, I've been spending a lot of time in the morning, creating and refining a "not-to-do list" for 2021. And it's created a clear picture of what I shouldn't pursue to maximize chance of the startup. Here's the list 1. Don't write a novel (So many ideas...) 2. Don't practice basketball (Already on a crazy plan to work out) 3. Don't try to read too many book (It's better to 100% understand a worthy book at this point) 4. Don't consume too much info. Most are garbage. What's your list?

Do you see a need for a community platform for professional networking?

LinkedIn is currently the #1 public wall for professionals, but their groups are practically dead. Facebook Groups used to be the best place for professional groups, but it has gone down significantly since 2017. Discord, Telegram and Reddit are pseudonymous platforms, so building professional connections is hard. Slack is probably popular among the ProductHunt crowd, but I have never activated for longer term on any community beyond our own internal Slack, and I have tried many. If there was a focused community platform for professional groups, would you join one?

Instagram Landing Page Hosting

Hi, I have an Instagram account and would like to (mostly) autogenerate a landing page under my own domain, that shows my feed and so far I was unable to find such a tool. Now there are three options 1. I did not look deep enough 2. There is no need 3. I need to build such a tool myself. What do you think? Best, Sebastian
