Why I Started This
I'm a builder with too many ideas sitting unfinished in notebooks and half-started repos.
I started 30 Projects in 30 Weeks as a way to break that cycle. My personal goal is simple: every week I will ship something people can see or use — whether that's a landing page, a waitlist, or a micro-SaaS that could grow into revenue.
Most ideas die because they never leave someone's head. This challenge forces momentum. Each week you put something into the world. It doesn't have to be finished, but it has to ship.
I'm sharing this publicly because accountability matters. And if this challenge helps me, maybe it can help others too.
