For those who took a stab at guessing what @Travis Sago and a 6X Bodybuilding World Champion have in common, THANK YOU! If you have no idea what I'm talking about you can see the original post here. Travis doesn’t know the answer either, so let me stop leaving this hanging. 😂 When Magnum McCrae was presented his SIXTH Bodybuilding title at the OCB Pro Yorton Cup World Championships, the Emcee asked how he keeps doing it. I expected him to say workouts, discipline, or some mental hack. Which he kinda did, but not quite. He said his BIG secret to winning back-to-back World Championships is... POSING for 30 minutes a day. Which made me think of Travis attributing much of his success to writing 30 minutes a day. Obviously, the 30 minutes jumped out at me first. Focus 30 minutes a day on the same thing = extraordinary results So yes, discipline, however, the real rocket fuel behind their success isn't in the time block, it's what they do with it. They both hone in on a SPECIFIC skill that separates the great from the world-class in their industries. THEN they commit 30 minutes a day to that skill. It's like isometric exercises instead of full body workouts. Instead of working on groups of muscles, isolating one muscle, with isometrics puts it under tension and holds it to concentrate the work exactly where you want the most strength. That’s what Magnum and Travis are doing with those 30 minutes. They’re not trying to get better at EVERYTHING. They know where maximum strength can make a BIG difference, and that’s where they put the reps. For Magnum, posing gives him extraordinary control over how he presents the physique that has to stand out against a stage full of elite bodybuilders gunning for his title. For Travis, writing keeps strengthening the thinking behind his edge. Reading buyers. Finding angles. Creating offers so good that some of the best marketers in the world seek him out for his thinking.

At first glance, it may seem hard to find the similarities between Travis and Magnum McCrae, the 6X OCB Bodybuilding World Champion. Although we’d have to see Travis in a Speedo first to make a fair comparison. 😂 Physiques aside, they have much more in common than meets the eye. They are both dedicated to their crafts. Travis over 30 years in the internet biz space and Magnum over 16 in Natural Bodybuilding. They both love the hell out of their wives and are quick to credit them for their support. They’re both really, really nice guys. And, they’ve both managed to put themselves in pretty enviable positions. Magnum, as the best all-natural bodybuilder in the world, with a name recognized around the globe in his sport. Travis, in the FU Position, with Ownership Income, not trading time for money and living a life of his choosing. Two VERY different versions of winning, but the BIGGEST similarity is what they both do that got them there. Can you guess what it could be? Hint: It's NOT eating chicken and broccoli every day. 🤣 Drop your best guess below. If I get enough folks to play along I'll reveal the answer in Part 2.

Came across an HP troubleshooting manual and decided it needed a choir. Every lyric is a real line from the manual. Paper jam. Remove any jammed paper. PC LOAD LETTER. Even the amen. Is it sacred? No. Is it stuck in my head? Unfortunately. Still taking requests. Weirdest manual or instruction sheet in the comments and I'll see what I can do with it.

I like projects that start with: “We know what we want to build, but we’re not sure how to build it properly.” I’m a senior software engineer and most of my work sits somewhere between full-stack development, AI, automation, mobile, and backend architecture. A few examples of things I can build: → An AI agent that reads documents, makes decisions, calls APIs, and takes actions instead of just answering questions → A SaaS product from rough idea to a working MVP with authentication, subscriptions, admin tools, and deployment → WhatsApp/Discord/web assistants connected to CRMs, internal data, calendars, and business workflows → Existing systems that need to be untangled, stabilized, sped up, or prepared for real production traffic → Mobile + web products sharing the same backend → IoT/robotics systems connecting real hardware, sensors, cloud services, and AI My usual stack includes TypeScript, React/Next.js, Node.js, Python/FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Redis, React Native/Flutter, AWS, Docker, and LLM/RAG tooling. I’m not only looking for neatly written project specs. If you have an unfinished prototype, a half-working product, or even an idea where the technical direction is still unclear, send it over. I’m happy to look at the problem first and tell you how I’d approach it. No sales call required.

Hey everyone, I’m a senior software engineer with 10 years of experience building full-stack platforms, AI-powered products, and mobile applications. I’m currently opening up some availability for new projects and collaborations, particularly with founders, startups, and businesses that have a solid idea but need an experienced developer to turn it into a reliable product. A few areas I can help with: • AI agents, assistants & business automation • SaaS platforms and internal tools • Full-stack web applications • Mobile apps for iOS & Android • AI/LLM integrations and custom workflows • CRM, API and third-party integrations • MVP development and existing product improvements • Backend architecture and scalable systems I’m comfortable taking a project from an early idea through architecture, development, deployment, and ongoing improvements. I can also jump into an existing codebase when something needs to be fixed, redesigned, or scaled. I care more about building something that actually solves the business problem than adding unnecessary complexity.

Happy to hear what you're working on and see whether I can help.
