    The Psychology of Click-Through Rates 🧠

    Your click-through rate (CTR) isn’t just a statistic. it’s a reflection of real people making choices. Every click comes from curiosity, urgency, or the promise of something valuable.

    Understanding that can change everything. And this letter will give us an insight into those psychological tricks and tactics.

    If your content, ad, or link fails to create an instant connection, people won’t engage.

    I once learned from Michael Porter that a pre-mortem is a tool for identifying potential failure points before a project begins.

    Too many digital communities remain mediocre because they lack strategic thought.

    Many people dive headfirst into new ventures without a clear action plan. A thinking on paper methodology.

    They soon find themselves overwhelmed, disoriented, or giving up quickly—only to retreat back into the all-too-familiar comfort of their 9-to-5 routines.

    Successful individuals understand that money jumps with the right strategy and that the same concept applies to your digital ecosystem.

    Virality is not a one-time miracle—it’s the result of careful and strategic positioning.

    I want to build an ecosystem that Never Sleeps.

    where my tools attract users 24/7, and I'm turning that dream into reality faster than ever. It's not magic—stick with me, and I'll show you how, without taking up too much of your time today. Trust me on this.

    Before we dive in, take a moment to check out this dashboard.



    In just one month since its inception and with fewer than seven posts, it’s already making waves. Not to be proud but to be proud of my viable actions after a long suffering. And beginning to realise that my built-up system is starting to garner attention.

    This early progress is a testament to my focus and determination. Enjoy the ride with me, mate!


    I'm keeping this letter brief because I've got to convert this project to my Spotify channel, boosting our accessibility and reach. Tune in on Spotify if you want more convenience.

    If you plan your moves with intention, your ideas can reach and resonate with a wider audience.

    I recall a time two years ago when I made a significant mistake.

    I arranged things in the wrong order, much like putting the horse before the cart. I'm not even sure if I'm right with that. But you get what I mean.

    I had built a beautifully designed and optimised system, but when no one visited my website or storefront, all that effort went to landfill.

    It Hurt, But I Kept Going anyway...

    I refused to give up. I knew that being right, even just once, will be worth every ounce of pain thereof.

    Sometimes, the hardest battles lead to the greatest victories.

    That failure imparted a valuable lesson: without strategic thinking, even the best designs can fall flat.

    Strategic thinking isn't just a fancy buzzword; it’s about having a clear plan in your mind. It’s a strategy— with— thinking. And it can depict simple joystick illustrations like this. ↗ ↘ ↙ ↖ ⇧ ⇩ ⇦ ⇨

    Think of it like planning your trip the night before. When you invest time in mapping out your journey, you set your mind in motion. It becomes easier to achieve your goals compared to someone who wakes up and randomly searches for directions via Google Maps or any tool therein.

    I strive for simplicity, much like the approach embraced by the late Steve Jobs. I love him, and I love his products (the Apple of God).

    Minimalism is at the core of everything I do. At DwellPro, or Snugle Times, we believe that a meaningful project is built on the foundation of strategic thinking.

    It is the secret ingredient that fuels all of our developed projects.

    The mind is both your greatest ally and your worst enemy. What you focus on expands. Like a lobster, growth requires shedding limitations and embracing discomfort.

  • The Real Problem with AI

    The Real Problem with AI
    Mar 5 2025
    The Real Problem with AIRead Full Episode Here👇www.snugletimes.com/2025/03/the-real-problem-with-aiWe all know that AI is a game-changer, but many overlook a gospel truth: the problem is not that AI isn’t helping you; the biggest problem is that you’re not asking the right questions. That's right!AI experts know something crucial. The quality of your prompts dictates the quality of your responses. The more effectively I prompt AI, the better the results, and the more proficient I become. With each success, my trust in the tool expands.It's more or less a chain reaction.Gone are the days of relying solely on online experts or classrooms. The best way to learn is by diving in and building real-world projects. The mind is like a supercomputer’s CPU, constantly clearing space to stay agile and efficient. To progress faster, you've got to get your hands dirty and learn through doing.Take a peek at my latest projects, at Dwellpro.org, and snugletimes.com, built entirely with AI and with hidden embeds. A place I regard as a cemetery. Due to what has been buried in there.Every bit of automation and every piece of code was crafted with the help of ChatGPT. Thank you, chat!And guess what? I did it all on a free plan. Just imagine what the paid plans could achieve. Maybe one day I might experiment on building an airport and see how I go. How much you learn is directly tied to how much you actually do. Actually getting lost on any project is finding your way on that project or projects.Watching endless YouTube tutorials or scrolling through TikTok videos might seem like progress, but let’s be honest—most of us are stuck in "tutorial hell."We watch and listen, but never actually implement what we learn or listen.Now, thanks to AI, we have the tools to move faster and smarter. But there is a problem. I mean a BIG problem.Prompting becomes the real-world BIG problem.You might not fully appreciate how powerful questions are until you fully engage with ChatGPT. If you ask silly questions, you'll be there with a bunch of silly answers. And that's not what you're after. Unless you're prompting for the sake of prompting. It can be time-consuming and annoying if you prompt like an amateur.If you want to make real progress in your life and work, choose a project that truly matters. This will push you to prompt effectively, or you'll stay stuck until you develop the meta-skillset needed to move forward. Once you master that skill, you'll need to acquire a new one to keep the project engaging—otherwise, it becomes boring. It’s just like a game; you always need a new challenge to keep the morale high.Focus on building something that takes you closer to your goals—and use AI to amplify your project. I love to build, learn, write, and teach. That way it sticks after. Teachers understand that they learn more than their students in a typical classroom setting. AI is a tool that can help you do the same. Wash you. Spin you. Dry you. Until you come out sparkling clean. That's my wish for you, mate.Therefore, if you haven’t already, start prompting AI today. There’s no better time to dive in and see how it can elevate your projects to the next level.And hey, if you haven’t joined our community yet, now is the perfect time. Hit the subscribe button after. I’ll see you in the next one. Keep building and keep learning because the projects you create are what'll ultimately shape you. Just like how man makes the society that shapes man. The government can't build you, and neither can your parents. Many of them grew up in an old system that prioritised classroom learning for roles now vulnerable to automation. In fact, everything is vulnerable to automation. The only thing I reckon that is not vulnerable is creativity itself. Thank you for reading!Until next time,Destiny Yes. We accept donations.

  • Building Answers: The Synthesis of Art and Entrepreneurship

    Building Answers: The Synthesis of Art and Entrepreneurship
    Feb 19 2025
    Building Answers: The Synthesis of Art and Entrepreneurship19|02|2025 | Destiny (Host)www.snugletimes.comNaval Ravikant once said, "To build a product, make something people want. To create art, make something you want. The best do both." This insight shows the strong bond between art and entrepreneurship. Building what you're passionate about, taking professional pride in operational excellence, and distributing it with those who share your enthusiasm should be the ultimate goal rather than engaging with some sort of robotic role that'll be replaced by artificial intelligence and automation. In my understanding, humans aren't designed for repetitive and boring tasks. Humans love challenges.Humans are born to build tools, not being tools themselves; to innovate and evolve alongside the tools they've built. The mind itself loves exploration, or it begins to deteriorate. That's why games and puzzles are mental diets and a gymnasium. My journey exemplifies this fusion.I was adamant about opening up myself to the world. Despite the challenges in getting freelance gigs, I remained open-minded and thus created a group to simplify the process, solve a problem for myself, and now sell the solution as a built-in traffic source that's being funnelled to my other built-up digital ecosystems. It's more or less recycling a traffic source. It never gets sour. Otherwise, I would have personally been a slave to the algorithm or the ad agencies. Nope, that can never be Destiny. I want to retain some control rather than relinquish it. Ads are good, doubtlessly, but I would want to run one when I want to. Not when I've built a digital mausoleum that may prompt me to keep buying an eyeball or renting one and on steroids. Ads Fee isn't a child's play. This initiative aided me and linked me up with others who share similar challenges or a tribe of sufferers, if that's even a word. Maybe I'll crosscheck afterwards. But you get what I mean.The experience itself underscored a universal truth: personal challenges often reflect broader societal needs.By addressing your problems and sharing the solutions, you can assist countless others. And human problems are evergreen problems and homogenous—emotional, financial, physical, and beauty, just to name a few.Embracing creativity and contributing to a cause greater than oneself is essential for the progress and evolution of society at large. What shall it profit me if I don't build what I want to see in the world?Through Community Building 101, I embarked on creating a comprehensive global hub—a platform offering real-time weather updates, vital handy digital tools, currency conversions, world news, and more. And yes, I built this space for myself, but I realised it could help others with similar interests, and then it was channelled to my already built-in traffic source.This solution or tool has the potential to address global needs, regardless of your context. If I should display the analytics of this, I mean readers of this letter, people in China, Germany, Korea, etc., are reading my work and gaining a mindf*cked thought on it. Why? Because there is a tool that aids in the letter-language translation mechanisms (Google Translate). You see. That's what we're talking about here. Sometimes the tools are just there, but the issue is bringing them together to form a coherent whole.There's nothing virtually new under the sun.Jeff Bezos's interview on the utilisation of the postal office keeps popping out of my head whenever I get to points like this: When he was asked about his idea of selling books online in his early days. He said the postal office was already in place; all he did was maximise what was already built up. As per Dwellpro, I did not build 99.9% of the tools; all I did was help others access the tools at their fingertips by categorising them categorically in an easy-to-use and, yes, free-of-charge manner. snugletimes.com #entrepreneurship
