Work in progress of my painting.
I am 26 weeks pregnant with my third baby.
Mostly getting tired of my mental game : how to get everything done before baby is born.
And if share it on social media or not.
Kind of want to but then I don’t really have to. I need motivation
Painting by Emma 3 years old. Name: Kite
She even clean her own brushes after.
How big achivent is that?
From 1 to 10?
What was you doing in this age ?
I don’t remember myself in this age.
I was watching Viktor posts around 1 or 2 months, we can call him sponsor of my return 😂 to X
I am motivated to build in public .
But I think I talk to much for one day.
Thank you!
There’s one thing people rarely talk about:
A lot of indie developers have kids.
My most productive hours start right after I drop them off at school. Coffee with my wife, then 5–6 hours of pure focus. No noise. No distractions.
Another 1–2 hours in the evening.
Kids force you to become efficient. No more 12-hour grind sessions. You rebuild your systems. Cut the noise. Focus on what actually moves the needle.
Funny enough – my income started growing after I had a family. And it keeps growing.
And the best part:
My 8-year-old son is already building games in Roblox. Talking about his future company. Thinking about money, investing, family.
That’s a different kind of motivation.

“Small accounts!
Let’s follow each other each other.
Just say “Hi””
I am going back to posting and in my feed just this message like 5 in a row.
I wonder:
What is the point of this? Get 1000 of people who follow for follow but 0 real conversations?
Are they not getting blocked for this ?
Kind of feels like inviting 1000 people to a party and then don’t talk with nobody.
Prefer 10 people who talk and have more vocabulary then just “follow me if you verified”
Anyway I am curious to know what is this about. Isn’t it just better to focus on writing some thoughts , then 5 hours replies with same text?
It’s fun. X- it’s chatting publicly, kind of nude and therapeutic.
Plus hopefully will help me to improve my English and get 9+ on IELTS .
How am I going so far 😂?
Please keep writing me , you can’t imagine how much it helps , especially who knows me from years ago.
Feels like résurrection of people who was lost . Like it the shows where relatives find each other after many years of search .
From Times When I was live streaming every day . Feels like different life . But I want to go back somehow.
Maybe I am afraid that now one will like new version of me , I feel that I am kind of boring now
@AlionaRud I always liked your spontaneous painting on the spot. Twitch for only gamers is long time ago, no there are any kind of Artists too, to become attention on Twitch is much more easy than on YouTube, a lot of former 17Live streamers have switched to Twitch and Tiktok. Think about

I’ve already sold my art
had exhibitions
and proved I can do this
but it’s still not enough
I have debts
kids depending on me
and less energy every year
so this is not optional anymore
I need my art to scale
I’m doing it publicly
follow if you want to see what happens
@Lampi_NRW Thanks for writing me this I feel more motivated. If you can share why did you like my streams? It Will really help me get back on track.
Was thinking about YouTube . Is there some artists on Twitch ? Thought mostly gamers.
