A new challenge for me


Recently I finished the book from the authors James and Claudia Azula Altucher called The Power of No.

Really recomended - for example in cases where you feel yourself stuck or poorly motivated.
It's different from the most self-help books.
Resonated with me quite a bit.
Awesome and easy reading.

How did I became aware of this book?
I do listen different podcasts. About Altuchers I heard from Lewis Howes show - episode #79. Thanks Lewis!

I liked the idea about reading 500 books to reinvent myself. In book they say 200 to 500 books equal one good mentor.
I decided that I will do it - take the challenge. And this was mu first book in this trip. 499 to go. I will keep you posted.
About what will I read? About topics I'm most interested about - software development, finance and psychology.
I'm not sure I will be able to do this in 5 years, since it means 100 books per year, ~2 books in a week. Not sure. But I will do my best to achive my goal.

To create a new Laravel project I used following command line command: "laravel new my-demo-app-web" to create PHP server side for my project. In folder I just created, I executed following command: "php -S localhost:8000 -t public" to start local back end server -  http://localhost:8000. So far everything went smoothly. So I started build something amazing, like script of Laravel is suggesting before it is finishing its job. Since the goal for me was to build a web application that will get its data from the back end of the same hos...
