Everyone has great ideas. Really, everyone.
However, most of them die.

Because people think it has to be perfect.
And wait for the right moment.

But you know what? Consistency > perfection.

The right moment is today. Ideas are worth nothing without someone who follows through.

wild how many applications don't mention what they're applying for.

"here's my CV. i think i can fit your company very well."

yeah but in which role? where do you see yourself fitting well?

state the role. state why you're the best fit. do that before anything else.

That's it.

Audit yourself in the major models, pick the prompts you want to own, and work backwards from the answer.

Have you thought about whether your brand is discoverable in AI agents?

We asked people and were shocked by the outcome. Over 85% of people said they still haven’t thought ab whether ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini or Claude mention their brand to users.

Here's what worked for us:

3. Optimize the sources LLMs cite.

Models read everywhere. Your site is one source among many. Reddit, industry publications, review sites, GitHub, expert directories. For every prompt you want to win, list the top three sources the model is likely citing. Then go work on those.

Back in Vienna. Wanted to take a cab home. Bro wanted to charge me 25€ for 3.5km. Uber costs 10€.

His fix price offer was BS (i even showed him the Uber price and he didn‘t want to adapt)

If regulatories wouldn‘t help them, the conervative cab industry would be already gone

Sometimes you want to do it.
Sometimes you don‘t.

However, important is to do it anyway.

Life is really special. You want something really hard. You work for it really hard. And suddenly you reach that point that once felt unreachable.

In Lisbon for the 4th time and i‘m shocked how fucked up it is this time. Either i never recognized or something changed, so dirty, broken houses and garbage everywhere

[Emir Selimovic @EmirSlmvc]

running a business isn’t all nice
the head never switches off
not at night, not on „vacation“

no days off
the brain works every day and every night
(yes, i dream about it)

learned to love that.

the discipline.
the extra mile.
the fact that i actually enjoy it.

Looking down on mother earth from the airplane never gets old.

[Emir Selimovic @EmirSlmvc]

Sick.

Ran a half marathon in Retiro Park in Madrid this morning. What a great park to run. Never ending.

Companies that think that they can simply hire juniors, give them a Claude license and they‘re good to go have already lost

Half of London's Airbnbs booked zero nights in the last 12 months.

47,000 empty listings in a single city. Paris 40%, Amsterdam 36%.

That's why Airbnb is suddenly adding hotels, car rentals and grocery delivery.
Filling empty rooms got hard, so they sell everything else.
