It& #39;s been a year since I started this Twitter account and dived head first into #nocode.

It truly changed the game for me.

Here are some reflections.

Prior to no-code I was just an ideas person... all talk and no action.

To make my ideas a reality was too expensive. It involved hiring a developer, or trying to learn coding (again).

No-code flipped this. Now building is... dare I say it... too easy? https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😬" title="Grimasse schneidendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Grimasse schneidendes Gesicht">

2020 has been an awful year in many ways.

But the excitement of creating new things has kept my mindset positive. My friends think I& #39;m weird as I& #39;m more energised now than ever before.

I don& #39;t know many entrepreneurs so don& #39;t have anyone to talk to about this stuff. Becoming part of the Twitter #nocode community has changed that completely.

I really value the friendships I& #39;ve made with people across the world.

It& #39;s what the internet is for.

Launching 15+ projects in the past year has taught me a huge amount about myself.

Strengths:
- Strong bias for action
- Happy to learn by failing
- https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="♥️" title="Herz" aria-label="Emoji: Herz"> Bubble

Weaknesses:
- Lack of structure and process
- Too lazy to validate ideas
- Easily distracted

2020 has taught us that even the biggest companies are one pandemic away from failure. There is no such thing as a secure job.

I used to see side-hustles as an aspirational pipe dream, but now I see them as a sensible way to spread your risk.
