Build the personal website I will use to document everything else. The meta project.

I am 27, running a digital marketing agency in Dubai that I built from scratch to 5-figure MRR. Now I am figuring out how to take it to 6 figures, and I am writing about that journey here, honestly, the good and the bad.
I am also obsessed with building things. So I gave myself a challenge: one project a month, $100 budget, no excuses. Not because I think I will get rich from it, but because I genuinely believe you do not need a lot of money or a big audience to start something.
This is my online journal. I write for myself mostly, but if something here resonates with you, that makes it even better.
