Re:Ask HN: What skills do you want to develop or improve in 2025? on Wednesday December 25, 2024 @05:13PM (#42511524)
Habits > Motivation - Develop a set of habits and behaviors that force me to work on my side projects everyday even if for just 5 minutes. The sporadic bursts of motivation that push me into the hyperfocus mode are actually useless if I can’t finish the project and it’s 80% done in perpetuity.

Networking - I find it really hard to approach random people and finding any connection.

Sales - finding and converting clients is a must if I am to seriously consider doing freelance engineering or entrepreneurship.

Do you guys think it’s worth reaching out to a professional coach wrt the points listed above?

On the contrary, I think we are extremely lucky for not being able to stomach aspartame.
