Taishi 🇯🇵🇨🇦 · From Japan to the world: Building a profitable product

I seemed to have fallen into a loop of negative thinking.

It was becoming increasingly difficult to view my situation objectively.

In many cases, my situation is often not as bad as I think it is. However, making a big decision when I can't observe and evaluate my situation objectively doesn't seem like a good idea.

On the other hand, forcing myself to continue the activity causing my negative thinking (building a software business) will only delay my mental recovery.

So, I've decided to take it easy and rest for a few weeks.

I mean…what’s the point if you can’t enjoy this moment right now? Japan has such a good weather and such a good quality of life. if you cannot enjoy it it’s unfortunate,

Fortunately(?) I caught a cold and had a high fever about 2 weeks ago in Vietnam, which was a good trigger for me to start my vacation.

I need to distance myself from the first-person perspective and take a slow rest until my mind becomes calm again.

For the past 7 months, I've been busy as a nomad in Southeast Asia, which might be contributing to my state.

I’m truly glad to be in a place where I can feel comfortable now.

Actually I’m feeling better and more energetic these days after coming back to Japan 🔥

I used to think burnout didn't exist…until this year.

It’s real and I've realized that understanding how the human mind functions is crucial when undertaking something as hard as starting a business for a long period.

Right now I’m reading Chatter: The Voice in Our Head, Why It Matters, and How to Harness and it’s helping me a ton so far :)

I sold Supabox! Although the sale itself was free, Savio will be running it from now on, and we will split the profits equally.

I needed something to distract myself, so I made some music!
Lately I've been into Synthwave so I made it. I prefer the slowed version.

Give it a listen while you're working :)
