My app just hit $15k over a 30-day period and here's my "one night success story"

I had a dream of freedom at 14 when my dad made me work as a waiter at his restaurant

Here's the full timeline since then:

2019:
๐Ÿ”ด Waiter, hated this job but got a goal from it

2020:
๐Ÿ”ด Failed to learn Python, cheated on courses
๐ŸŸข Learned Python for real, found a course where I couldn't cheat

2021:
๐Ÿ”ด Covid hit, daily routine of garden work, reading, training, coding, Twitch after 6pm

2022:
๐Ÿ”ด Graduated but failed exams since I never prepared, 0 self-improvement that year

2023:
๐Ÿ”ด University #1, got accepted, decided to learn JS and get a remote job
๐Ÿ”ด Doing free internships anywhere to gain skills and mentorship
๐Ÿ”ด Budget: $130/month
๐ŸŸข Learned JS, started looking for jobs on LinkedIn
๐Ÿ”ด 7,000+ rejected LinkedIn applications and 3-4k on other platforms

2024:
๐ŸŸข Dropped out since I was moving to Barcelona
๐ŸŸข Started a web agency with a friend
๐ŸŸข Started posting on X, looking into startup direction
๐Ÿ”ด Still at $0/months

2025:
๐Ÿ”ด Agency failing, no consistent revenue, lost months and money
๐ŸŸข University #2 in Barcelona, learning Spanish
๐Ÿ”ด First SaaS, gave up after PH launch
๐Ÿ”ด Bibliou (book lovers social), failed at marketing, banned on Reddit
๐Ÿ”ด BuildFast (animation library for devs), failed at marketing, banned on Reddit AGAIN
๐ŸŸข @mediafa_st, took my Reddit failures and built a tool around them, made $363 first month
๐ŸŸข X monetization activated, getting paid to yap
๐Ÿ”ด B2C SaaS launched but $0 for months
๐ŸŸข MediaFast hit $5k/month

2026:
๐ŸŸข Dropped out again, got accepted and moving to Poland
๐ŸŸข MediaFast hit $7k/month
๐ŸŸข B2C SaaS hit $7k/month

2024-2025 were the hardest yet best years of my life

Dad had cancer stage 4, I was struggling mentally, shit loads of pressure

Reason I never quit? The goal I had was the only thing I wanted, no way around it

What helped was visualizing my dreams DAILY, when I ate, when I trained, before sleep

Once you overcome those obstacles, life gets brighter and you find crazy energy inside

I have 2026 goals that a year ago I would've called ridiculous

Keep pushing
