Short snippets

Here’s the list of short snippets, ideas, concepts that I live by.

  • Communities are underrated. Courses are overrated.

  • Learning alone isn’t the full picture, Learn to create, not to learn.

  • Building products have become easier, building the audience got harder.

  • The only way to leave the mark is to create relentlessly.

  • We’ve entered in passion economy. The possibilities of employment are enormous.

  • Age does not mean a thing, now. It’s an outdated metric to make the initial guess about someone.

  • Putting out the names of skills you’ve is not going to help. What you can do with that skill is the real thing. That’s where value comes into the picture.

  • Alcohol, porn, masturbation, smoking, all of these are an unhealthy escape from reality.

  • You don’t need to booze to celebrate the victory.

  • Like Instagram that only shows the one part of a big picture of someone’s else, the intellectual work(blog, tweets, apps) that you see of others is also one part of the picture. We only publish what we think others are going to be interested in. Signalling.

  • We need more masters to make the world a better place.

  • The opportunity of learning from great masters early in the life is unfair advantage.

  • Great masters makes you more curious, authentic and relentless. I respect more than everyone else.

  • Increase your competence and confidence by doing more of it, building more of it, sharing more of it.

  • Build more. Hack more. Produce more. The only way to progress towards better future.

  • The ability to communicate and keep things simple is rare.

  • We should appreciate raw things more than polished surfaces. Especially while hacking and building things.

  • Schools and colleges can’t teach building something because they focus on learning instead of building. And you can only build X after building lots of x/2’s.

  • 99% of schools and colleges are completely trash. They’re bad at both. Signalling and as well as education.

  • Money is good. Money is great. It’s important.

  • When you’re nothing, no one listen you. When you become something, everyone wants you to speak. Weird. Why we as humans can’t identify the gist in an individual early on?

  • Keep your self away from pessimists. Negative energy.

  • Internet remove all possible barriers standing between you and great masters. I request you to find them and learn from them as much as you can and as soon as possible.

  • The more you grow, the more you come close to the truth, the more silent you become.

  • Reframing is diamond.

  • School and colleges completely changes the meaning of learning and writing for bad.

  • Writing is essential.

  • Dumping down your brain is essential to keep things light. A free medicine to keep stress away.

  • Learning. Writing. Building. Exercising. Four top most ingredients of a good life.

  • APIs are enablers. They’re powerful. It’s how multiple businesses are born out of a single business.

  • Life is a series of small bets.

  • Spreadsheets powers the core of nearly every business.

  • Build your body of work. Share your body of work.

  • At the end, you’re going to be brainwashed. The point is whom you’ll allow to brainwash yourself?

  • Most things need to be fostered. They don’t come to you in an instant. Discipline, Vision, Peace and Patience are some of them.

  • Always have a tab open for writing. Whenever something comes into your mind, just dump it down. Make writing your default activity.

  • Every spreadsheet eventually will get converted into a SAAS app.

  • Learn to earn compound interest on everything you do.

  • Working without intention invites 100 distractions.

  • Money is the practical solution of 99% of the problems.
