Future Millionaire Mindset

I stopped working on this blog, or site, or whatever you want to call it, because I found a new goal. I built an entire website, completely on my own, and I’m genuinely proud of it. The problem is… I’ve hit a wall.

I did what most people would consider the hard part. I came up with an idea and built it.

I’ve written about this site before. It’s called The Introvert Bookclub.

Going from an idea to something that at least partially resembled what I had pictured in my head was relatively easy. There was trial and error with the structure, of course, but overall I really enjoyed the process of building it.

The wall I hit, and the one I’m still trying to climb, is engagement.

People don’t tend to flock toward the unfamiliar.

Between hitting that wall and the holidays, I slowly drifted off track. I still post on the site’s Instagram a few times a week, but I rarely check or work on the website itself. I’ve caught myself feeling lazy, but the truth is, I’m not avoiding the work, I’m struggling to figure out the next step.

That doesn’t make this a failure (something I have to remind myself of often). It just means I need to approach it from a different angle.

So I’m starting here, by talking it through.

I want to prove to myself that this idea still deserves forward movement, and that the time I’ve poured into it wasn’t wasted.

What I’ve realized is this: the next step isn’t more building. It’s partnership.

I’ve done everything I’m capable of doing on my own,  and now I’d love to explore what this could become with someone else.

The Introvert Bookclub

The Introvert Bookclub began as a personal idea, a response to finishing books and realizing there was nowhere comfortable to talk about them afterward.

Most existing spaces felt too large, too fast, or too performative.

This platform was built around a simple concept:

small, time-limited discussion rooms created when readers finish the same book around the same time.

Rather than permanent forums or algorithm-driven feeds, the site focuses on temporary, meaningful conversations, spaces that open quietly, encourage reflection, and then close naturally.

What exists today is a fully functioning prototype with a clear identity, working workflows, and early signs of genuine engagement. More importantly, it has strong emotional resonance with readers who value privacy, depth, and intentional connection.

I believe there is significant potential here, not only as a reader community, but as a scalable concept centered on slower interaction, curated conversation, and human-paced digital spaces.

At this stage, I’m looking for a partner who:

• genuinely enjoys reading
• understands the value of community-driven products
• sees long-term potential in this model
• and would enjoy shaping what this could become together
