108 Days of Posting Content: Solo Founder Experiment

Jan 7, 2026

Is it possible to build a profitable app from scratch, alone, in just 108 days?

Today, I’m starting an experiment to find out.

My name is Mikita. I’m 35 years old. My original profession is not even IT — I’m a vascular surgeon with a PhD in medicine. But for the last 10 years, I’ve been building digital products and mobile apps.

In the past, I almost always did this the “classic startup way”:

Big teams

Big budgets

Complex partnerships

Long meetings

Long timelines

Sometimes it worked. Sometimes it didn’t. But one thing was always true:

progress was slow, expensive, and complicated.

So this year, I decided to do something radically different.

The Challenge

I’m launching a

108-day public challenge

:

Build from $0 to $10,000 in Monthly Recurring Revenue as a solo founder.

No team.

No investors.

No excuses.

Just:

Focus

Systems

Daily execution

And full transparency.

I will document this journey

every single day

in public.

What exactly am I building?

I will grow two things in parallel:

Askesis

— a mobile app for time-bound challenges and discipline building

My private consulting

for founders and app creators

Askesis is built around a simple idea:

Real change happens not through vague goals, but through

clear, time-boxed commitments

.

For example:

30 days of daily meditation

90 days without alcohol

60 days of daily workouts

108 days of focused execution

This is not about motivation. This is about

systems and structure

.

But this challenge is about more than money

Yes, the goal is $10,000 MRR.

But the deeper goal is something else.

I want to find out:

Is it possible to align what you love, what you build, what you create, and what makes money — into one single flow?

In other words:

Build products

Create content

Share the journey

Help people

And make a living from it

All as one person.

No split identity. No “this is for money, this is for soul”. One coherent system.

The main questions of this experiment

Over the next 108 days, I want to honestly answer:

Does the

challenge method

actually work?

Can I really stay consistent every day?

Can a solo founder compete with teams?

And of course:

can this reach $10K MRR?

I don’t know the answers yet.

And that’s the point.

What’s next

Every day I will:

Build

Ship

Measure

Learn

And publish results

Both the wins and the failures.

If you want to follow this journey:

You can follow it on YouTube and social media

Or just come back to this blog and read the updates

Final thought

This is Day 1.

Right now, the result is zero.

But every meaningful journey starts exactly here.

Let’s see what 108 days of focused execution can really do.
