Did you know that 81% of small businesses have no employees? That’s a lot of responsibility on one set of shoulders! But this isn’t just true for traditional small businesses - online entrepreneurs, content creators, and freelancers often work solo too. And the most painful part? Most of the time, when a great idea pops into your head, it vanishes within seconds. Ring any bells? Been there, done that? This happens because of something called cognitive load. It’s the mental effort used in working memory. When there’s too much going on in your brain, some ideas slip away as your brain prioritizes what seems more important at the moment. It’s like having too many tabs open in your browser – eventually, some just have to close! Well, as a solution, I’ve recently been using tools that help me stay organized, and I can’t tell you how much of a difference it’s made. One of my favorites is Todoist. I know what you’re thinking - “It’s just another to-do list app, right?” Yes, but here’s the magic: This app understands natural language input. You can type tasks exactly as you would say them, including due dates and times. For example, simply type “Write a blog post about tips to lose weight tomorrow at 2 PM,” and Todoist will automatically set the right time for you. No need to click through complicated menus – just type it like you would say it. Thanks to this feature, I can easily remember everything I need to do, and since it works with other apps like Notion, everything stays neatly organized. So, if you’re struggling with the same issues, I highly recommend trying out Todoist! And it’s worth mentioning that I’m still on their free plan, and it works well for me. Cheers, Minosh. |

Last week I was at a small garage fixing my little hatchback. The owner never posted a single reel. Yet cars kept coming in like it was planned. There are so many garages that barely get a few cars a day, even though their place looks modern. But this place was full. So I asked the guy who did my brake lining how they get so many customers. He smiled and said, “Our regulars bring their friends.” That’s the real play. And he’s right. The reason I was actually there was because one of my...
I’m not a fan and not even using it, but last week, I opened LinkedIn, saw a smart post from a small creator, and thought, “Nice.” Then I checked their profile. No huge following. Just valuable posts, posted around three times a week, teaching one thing tied to one clear niche. That’s the thing most of us still miss. LinkedIn isn’t only for suits and job posts, well, not anymore. It’s one of the few places where simple posts still work, and native documents (carousels) can get real reach....
You open your favorite social media app. Everything looks perfect. Too perfect. There are trends, the same viral song, the same outfit, the same dance. Same AI saying this works now, do that next. You didn’t ask for it. It just keeps coming. The feed decides it. We let algorithms decide what we see and tell us what we’re supposed to like. That’s the drama right now. So the real cost is quiet but kind of serious: you start losing your own sense of taste. Recently, Pinterest shared January 2026...
