9–5, family, building startups on the side.

building while walking until i can make a living from my own products

2026: selling first, building second.

[Timo 🌱 @TimoBuilds_]

i blamed my walking pad for becoming furniture

turns out i was the problem

i made a habit i can't skip
then i've broke the trigger: building = walking

time to bring the habit back

(thx @ogi_joo for the hint)

Day 7 building while walking

barely had 30 min to build today in morning break of 9-5

achievement: this habit got me start walking during my main work too

first timelapse with my new action cam instead of my phone

@VynseDev @tibo_maker @marclou is enough to get a lot of attention

filming with my phone kept interrupting my work

Day 6 building while walking
7,397 steps

mounted an action cam so my phone stays free
what can’t you work without?

[Timo 🌱 @TimoBuilds_]

@tibo_maker looks like you've lost your tongue too

[Timo 🌱 @TimoBuilds_]

Day 5 building while walking

16,305 steps today

finally found my zero-friction setup:

Garmin in my pocket, no workout, no app, just step on and walk (everytime again)

the easier the habit starts, the easier it sticks

What’s your best “just works” solution?

[Timo 🌱 @TimoBuilds_]

@FlowHaa Me too!

the start was the most effective way to get the best time. got a lot of coach instructions

[Timo 🌱 @TimoBuilds_]

funny what gets you excited at 33

cycled 48.86 km to work and back today

but the number i’m happiest about is 13.4 secs

13.4 secs for running 100 m sprint
26.9 km/h on my own legs 🫡

the final discipline i needed for my German Gold Sports Badge 🥇

between my 9–5, family and building SaaS, there’s always something to do

felt pretty damn good to finish something that has nothing to do with a screen

ran 100 m for three times
my legs are absolutely fried now, lol

[Timo 🌱 @TimoBuilds_]

pov: it’s 5 am and you’re commuting through the fog to your 9–5

while everyone else is sleeping

@martinpcolley well made!

just a matter of training km :)

[Timo 🌱 @TimoBuilds_]

@DanielSmidstrup might i redesign it?

[Timo 🌱 @TimoBuilds_]

@DanielSmidstrup B feels reading better, but still not satisfying. the black text is blocking imo
