Courtland Allen founded Indie Hackers in 2016 and it was acquired by Stripe less than a year later 😎
About 44 minutes into this interview Courtland talks about how he built the first version of the site in only 3 weeks.
Paraphrasing…
Everybody is trying to figure out, how do I get enough money to work on my idea?
A second lever people try to pull: how do I get more time to work on my idea?
But I think the third lever that’s probably the best is how do you just start smaller?
Instead of finding more time or money to launch your next project, could you pull that third lever? 🤔
