What we'll be creating:

Figma tutorial

1) Add a fixed size square to the 'paper' element

I'm assuming your containing element has auto-layout already applied.

2) Apply 'Position: Absolute' to the square

The square will no longer take up space in the layout. It can be moved freely.

Move the square to the corner.

Important: Change the square's color so that it equals that of the background (the element behind the 'paper' element).

3) Add another, equal size square

4) Edit the square and turn it into a triangle

Simply drag the corner vector point. Doesn't have to be exact.

5) Position the triangle on top of the first square

6) Edit and round corners as needed

Done!

Webflow tutorial

What we'll be creating:

1) Give the containing 'paper' element a Position of Relative

2) Add a div (it'll be the corner fold)

3) Make sure it has no width or height + Give it some color and a thick border

4) Change its position to Absolute

Move it to the top left corner.

5) Change the border color of the top and left borders so they are the same color as the background

Why does this work?

Div borders meet each other at an angle..

When the div has no height or width, the borders become triangles.

Reflections

Have you forgotten about the fundamentals?

I’ve learned that no amount of coaching, fancy apps, “creativity hacks & tips” etc, will make up for:

  • Subpar sleep
  • Low vitamin D3 (lack of direct sunlight exposure)
  • Lack of movement (sports, resistance training, cardio)
  • Poor diet (macro and micronutrients)
  • Nonexistent stress management

Get these right first.

They are the highest impact things you can do.

Ignoring these is like a student ignoring the fundamental concepts needed to ace an exam and instead focusing on color-coding their notes, using fancy study apps, and organizing their study space with intricate decorations.

Master the basics. Everything else falls into place.

Nonfiction books are too long

Most nonfiction books should've been 1000-word articles.

I find myself abandoning a lot of books right around the 25-30% mark.

Not because they're bad, but because I fully get the gist by that point and it's right around when the repetition of examples and ideas begins.

I'm okay with abandoning a book midway now. Just a couple years ago, I would power through the whole thing in fear of missing out on some crucial ideas in the later chapters.

Now, I just have fun with it. If it piques my interest, great – I'll buy it, read the chapters that seem interesting, get what I came for and move onto the next one.

I think a lot of these authors are just trying to meet some sort of quota. I dunno.

There's elegance in brevity.

A note on this weird cold plunge trend

So many of these "gurus" telling us to take cold showers and cold plunges 😂 😂

If you’re tired all the time:

  • Go get your bloodwork done and see what you’re deficient in
  • Get outside. Get some damn sun
  • Sleep well
  • Use your mind to build something – It'll energize you

Stick to high-impact basics. These little micro-optimizations aren't going to change anything.

Enjoy your hot showers 🔥🚿
