Celebrate more ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰

Originally sent as a newsletter.

Hello,

Friday marked my 10th anniversary as an independent contractor and indie hacker!

This would probably have been an excellent time to write a long and profound article on what I have learned over the last decade of being self-employed.

Profound is not really my MO, so instead, I spent some time creating this fun page to celebrate myself ๐ŸŽ‰

I promise it looks better if you click it!

And I would love to make one for you!

If you have something to celebrate. Let me know about it, and Iโ€™ll send you your own confetti-filled personalized celebratory webpage.

Because we all need to be better at celebrating ourselves.

I almost let this opportunity for celebration pass. There were more โ€œimportantโ€ things I felt I โ€œshouldโ€ focus on.

But I am so happy I did not.

Celebrations are contagious, and I think we all need more fun, whimsy, and confetti in our lives.

So send me that thing you want to celebrate, however smallโ€”no need to wait until itโ€™s a 10th anniversary.

It will make me happy, and it will make you happy ๐Ÿ˜

Until next week,
Benedicte

PS: Itโ€™s a CodeSandbox site, so with only minimal coding knowledge, you can play around with it.

Join the crew!

All the shenanigans from me and my piratical family, straight to your inbox.
