I’ve been in what my BFF calls “maniac mode.”
You know the feeling — when your brain won’t stop solving, the ideas keep stacking, and you’re sprinting between code, product, and business decisions like it’s all one giant puzzle.
Lately, I’ve been:
• Tuning a legal tech platform that calculates complex legal deadlines
• Thinking through client portals, replay services, and monetization paths
• Writing stored procedures, sketching SaaS tiers, and drafting notes on Black creative legacy —sometimes all in the same day
It’s exhausting, but electric.
I wouldn’t trade this stretch of focus and clarity for anything.
This is the kind of mode where real products get built.
Where you stop asking for permission and just make it real.
I’ll rest later. For now, I’m building.
