  • Am I too late to the “Indie Hacker” party?

    I see 19-year-olds shipping 4 apps a week and I feel like I missed the boat.

    I'm 26 and sometimes feel like I'm playing catch up to the "wunderkinds".
    But you know what I do have? Focus. I know why businesses fail because I've actually worked in them. I decided to lean into that.

    But still, with all the social media trends that I cannot keep up with, I'm asking myself whether I am too old to keep up with everything going on.

    You’re not too old until you solidify your acceptance of such. You can’t teach an old dog new tricks but no one ever said that old dog can’t pick them up all on his own. I find myself getting the same feeling I did when I was a teenager with all of these advancements in tech and the opportunities which stem from them. And I’m in my 30s.

    It’s less about age and more about mindset.
