Yesterday's Zuckerberg and Small Bets
Hey cool people! How is it going?
I hope all is well!Hello beautiful people, how are you?
I'm euphoric, because of 2 reasons
on weekends I always eat goot things (but I'm always on a diet during the week π )
it's a time when I'm having fun with my side projects.
In fact, I want to dedicate this issue to the concept of the small bets, which is thrilling me so much!

New small bet: "Mystery Pianist"
This week my bet "Mystery Pianist" is live.
On next days I'll post the first results about that. In the meanwhile, I talked about how I moved from the idea to the real world in 8 days.
About the small bets
I asked in publish a deep question:"How many side projects do you suggest to have?".
I got 10 interesting answers. Take a look if you can.
For me it is a non-trivial question. For 3 years I had the focus on only 1 project. But it failed.
Instead it is interesting to understand how many small experiments we can simultaneously run to find our next big thing.
Mike by NicheTwins.com perfectly explains the concept with a very clear picture. I love it.
I learned the theory of a portfolio of small bets for the first time from Daniel Vassallo.
And so many other influential people in the digital world embrace it
Which is why I am working on a Notion template to manage my small bets. And actually, my lowest hanging fruit are Youtube channels where I play piano covers.
And I would add another important advice by Daniel: never falling in love with one's own ideas and projects. Introducing cattle and pets π
