What I completed this week (link to last week’s commitments):

• Read Warren Buffett: Inside the Ultimate Money Mind, a biography by Robert Hagstrom about Warren Buffett’s mentality
• Tested populating a database with data (my developer friend led this effort)
• Created sketch of UI
• Refined database tables and fields based on the test run
• Created idea bank for growth strategies
• Added to feature list based on idea bank
• Identified what I believe are the main reasons book-related applications have struggled to become part of users' daily habits and developed features to address these challenges

What I’ll do next week:

• Read a framework book or a biography or autobiography
• Update personal blog to link posts about the same book
• Get input from developers who’ve worked on similar projects
• Identify potential technologies for challenging features
• Ponder ways to communicate a founder’s journey more effectively
• Create a list of potential metrics for weekly updates that better reflect this project
• Share taxonomy drafts with one person

Asks:

Week two hundred forty-five was another week of learning. Looking forward to next week!
