Why did you start creating?
I’m just a week away from launching my first product on Product Hunt. Super excited, super overwhelmed — and last night, I found myself wondering: "How all this started?"
Truth is, I’ve always been a restless soul (or as we say in Spanish, culo inquieto) — once I’ve learned everything in a role, I get bored. So I build. Not out of ambition, but out of a need to keep learning and growing.
Quitting my last well-paid job to start something from scratch hasn’t been the easiest, safest, or calmest path — but honestly, I’m grateful I chose to “complicate” my life this way.
How was it for you? What made you start creating and building? Have you always had this itch to create? Was it frustration? A specific problem? Or something else entirely?
I’d love to hear what drives you to create — even when it’s the harder, uncertain path.
