Last year was my most difficult year as an entrepreneur. I feel like I’ve hit rock bottom but… luckily managed to bounce back. Hopefully now the only way is up and to the right! But yeah, 2024 was something else… that’s why I procrastinated writing this summary, my 11th one and published it only now, at the end of March, when we’re already 3 months in 2025… This will be my most candid yearly summary yet… hopefully this much transparency will serve other struggling entrepreneurs:

Now that I’ve finished setting up My new Home Office for 2025 I’m starting to appreciate the tweaks and improvements that lead to making it my best “recording studio” ever. It’s an improvement to the Streaming setup from 2021 and most gear stayed the same, but with the new things that came in and much better light management this makes the overall result amazing:

In Europe, most airlines, especially Ryanair, Easyjet and Wizzair, let you have a free small bag which you can put under a seat. The dimensions are more-less 40cm of height (16 inches), 25-30cm of width (10-12 inches) and 20cm of bulk (8 inches). Most of my backpacks are between 20-26L and they are just too big. Normally I’d get away with it, but recently the airlines started paying more attention to these bags’ sizes. So I checked if my favorite bag/pouches company Peak Design had anything that would work and I think I found it. It’s Everyday Backpack Zip 15L (Amazon link).

After a longer stint with my home office (only with minor changes since 2022) it was time for some major re-modeling. I started with moving furniture around but then I upgraded basically everything: cables, Mac, teleprompter and much more. So stay tuned for my best home office yet!

Nozbe - the productivity app that I founded back in February of 2007 is celebrating 18 years in business. To commemorate the occasion, we bid and won the cover of iMagazine (see below) as all the proceeds from this auction went to charity. So… my Nozbe app is now mature. However, as I’ve been preparing today for this Wednesday’s celebratory recording of the NoOffice FM Podcast, I’ve realized that I’ve been making some very immature decisions on my way to getting here:

I have a long-standing tradition of getting a cool LEGO set each Christmas and in 2023 I got an amazing car - Ferrari Daytona SP3 which is enormous! Almost 4K blocks (3778 to be exact) based on a $2.5M dollar hypercar and this time it took me almost a year to build it as I couldn’t find the time for it. In the end it’s here and it’s gorgeous.

Let me tell you how my small but global company Nozbe became a pioneer of the 4-day work week, thanks to Mighty Fridays! We introduced this concept in 2016 and it was so successful that two years later I was invited to talk about it on national Breakfast Television. Which followed many articles in local and national press about our company. What follows below is more-less my speech at a conference WORKsHOW 2025. Here goes:

Even though I’ve updated my travel gear list less than a year ago, I’ve upgraded a bunch of smaller and bigger (M4 iPad Pro) things this year, so I think it’s time for yet another update. Especially that this week is a Black Week with lots of good prices. Especially I’m providing Amazon links with my affiliate ID so by clicking on them not only you’ll see the deals but you’ll be also supporting this page. Thanks and enjoy!

After many months of thinking, deliberating and soul-searching, I’ve decided to finally stop posting on my @MSliwinski account on X (formerly Twitter). If you want to follow me, feel free to do so on Mastodon or LinkedIn. Alternatively sign up for my Newsletter, which I’m sending every 2 weeks. If you’re curious how and why it came to this decision, here goes:
