Hacks, Humility & Hype from the Productivity Trenches


Welcome to the Official DDWU Blog

Whether you’re chaotically launching a passion project or retroactively calling burnout a “learning sprint,” the DDWU Blog is your slightly delusional companion through the fog of faux-productivity.

Here, we unpack the ups, downs, and circular pivots of modern hustle culture — complete with reflections from startup founders, AI mentors with boundary issues, and people who think Notion can fix their lives.

This is not your average productivity blog. This is DDWU.


✍️ What You’ll Find on the Blog

  • Step-by-Step Failure Optimization – Learn how to fail smarter, not faster.
  • 🧠 Productivity Game Modes – Try advanced strategies like “procrastiplanning” and “deadline denial.”
  • 🕒 Mindful Hustling Tips – Use buzzwords like “flow state” while doomscrolling.
  • 🌟 Community Spotlights – Meet real users and imaginary startups who live by the DDWU mantra.
  • ⚠️ Mistakes We Made for You – We’ve done the dumb stuff so you don’t have to (but probably still will).
