I cannot understate how important it is to surround yourself with people that are high energy, excellent at what they do, and genuinely want to see you win. Impossible not to level up when you’re constantly learning, feeding off each other and having fun in the process.

I wasted months last year ruminating on my life’s purpose, and what I should be doing with my time. It made me miserable. It’s only when I tuned into my curiosity and started just doing stuff that things changed. Get out of your own head and start living life. Go do things.

Toronto has some of the most talented builders, creatives and technologists I've ever met, but for some reason, many of them are afraid to talk about their work publicly. If you have a gift, perhaps consider that you have an obligation to share it with the world.

If you’re not going as fast you’d like to, it may be because you’re not surrounding yourself with the right people. Don’t underestimate the value in developing your own infrastructure for social accountability. The fear of letting others down can be a powerful motivator.

The reason you have writer’s block is because you’re not writing for yourself. You’re afraid of something, and that contaminates the sincerity of your ideas and makes it way harder to lose yourself in the act of writing. Just let go.

It’s amazing how apps that seem simple turn out to be quite complicated as you dig into the design details. Every decision you make either adds or subtracts friction. Edge cases pop up out of nowhere, like a game of Whack a Mole. It’s true what they say: Simple is hard.

Calling all Toronto product people! I’m hosting a Lenny’s Newsletter meetup with @lfgraf next Thursday at @GelaSkins in Roncesvalles. Come meet other product folks, and let’s chat about the highs and lows of making software.

Yemeni food is so goated. Just had the best Lamb dish (Mandi) ever from this Mississauga joint called Monasaba. In utter disbelief at the succulence and flavours. Toronto food truly is world class.

The Command Palette (⌘ + K) is a goated design pattern in modern software. When done well, it feels like you're playing a video game on God mode. What I love is how it breaks down any software to its atomic units. Less flash and clicks. Just rows of actions and keystrokes.

Having fun tinkering in Figma for the first iteration of Riff. Great news is I can leverage existing UX/UI paradigms from iMessage and other chat apps, and then figure out how to map existing actions and patterns to tweeting. No need to reinvent the wheel just yet.

I’ll be participating in this. I wrote 3,422 words doing a 30-day writing challenge in April, so 5,000 words will be a test. Will aim to complete in a way that doesn’t interfere with my 100 Days of Design. Join me and let’s write together. Link in the comments.

Tomorrow I'm starting a race to see who can be the first to reach 5000 words published online. I'll be using this as an opportunity to write consistently about Toronto. What I love the city, what makes it special, what makes it difficult and highlighting things that I think are

It’s a beautiful Sunday morning to make some music. When I sit the behind this kit, I disappear, and everything clicks into place. I hope today you get to indulge in whatever thing makes you feel the same way.

Met with @steven_yuen and @ajaysabs to test out @gather_do . • It's fast—takes me less time to capture thoughts than other apps. • @steven_yuen is a skilled interviewer. I learned a ton seeing him work. • Building simple things is hard, but I'd bet on these two to nail it.

there is ridiculous upside in sending a cold email or dm. have good intentions, craft it well, make a clear ask, and just hit send.
