Survival, freedom, meaningful expression.

In it essence fundamentally working is finding someone’s need, matching their needs with skills. And a communication layer is in between. Having 2 personalities and competitions makes this communication challenging. Weather I work or do business this in its essence is happening. Matching the need of multiple group makes it more complex business.

Hustling and clear understanding is the only way to really learn. Hustling is the main thing. Although intellectual understanding feels quiet rewarding but it is not a skill.

It is matching the need with skill with communication.

Engaging in certain communities like sillicon valley or stanford can provide optimal conditions and opportunities to learn business. Or scaling. It is that effect of me doing freelancing or Anurag having French GF. This is somewhat optional though.

survival - the first thing is to survive. It means that you have enough money or stream of money so you can pay your rent and food and live a dignified life. Which is at bare minimum would be 25K. Shove comes to push you can go to even 10-15k.

The second level of survival would be a comfortable life. Having a decent apartment. Acccess to cowork. Access to cafes. And mindfit. Being able to travel to Chang mai. Without worried about micro money management. The way I lived from last 5 years.

The third level is that I don’t need to think of money weather it is going to USA. Europe, taking course on GLP. Recording equipment.

freedom - working for someone is compromising freedom. Now you can not go and do Vipassana. If the survival is on the line, it makes sense to compromise the freedom. It is not having control over your actions.

The fundamental nature of work is to bring value in other...

The key aspect of work is to comfortable survival, freedom or control over lif,e and then meaningful expression. Searching happiness and fullfilment in the selfish work

How well I can do a Job depends upon how much it matters to me. How much align it is with my natural consitution and strengths. Obsession for the depth of knowledge is my natural consitution.

The first option is actually starting a bussiness and this has to be the ultimate long term goal. Done right it can provide comfortable survival, freedom, and resource for Danna and meaningful expression. And the daily hustle that will actually help you to grow.

Aligned with your strengths and with the help of complementory skill you can make it really engaging.

So I come and stay with Lin, Bhai called and I said I am buying poha, which is true, but then it leads to another question that where are you living.

What I am doing is not something that I will consider wrong, but is having wrong from the parents and brothers point of view.

Now this is a kind of deadlock, I don’t want to lie. But telling truth is breaking their code of conduct severely. It is the area I would like to have private.

It is ok to not disclose certain parts of life to other people. You can withhold that information. Or if you have tell the lie, tell it as close to truth as possible.

The only information I need to withhold here is that I am staying with girl, which is a right thing to do for me. You can withold that info. From family. By telling them everything else truth.

The first element is the need or want of someone. And then their capacity and willingness to pay. And the intensity of desire. There is also the need and desire of different level of mind and weather they want it direct or indirect.

Once you understand this, you need to know the price point and the way to reach and communicate. And present the in the way they would like it. Monopolising and taking advantage of that is quiet the possibility and

Now you can’t do this by yourself only, you need team and people and you can start delegating the task, you can also take advantage of other peoples complementory skill. the essential task you need to master yourself and later you can start delegating the task. If you know exactly what needs to be done. It is possible.

The first goal should be to have a comfortable life yourself and then having enough resources to scale in all the meaningful...

One of the key element no what what I chose to do, is to have this element of bussiness. What ever you choose to do you need to be able to build it. scale it. Etc.

Now You can actually work in a very good startup somehwhere outside India to gain the experincial knowledge of how they are doing, playing your part nicely and seeing it all. Now this experience does not come for free. And knowledge is not same as real hustling.

You can start with taking on easpect of the bussiness. Master it. And then move it to next. There are only few of these. Atleast once you have hustled yourself. It becomes meaningful when you see other people doing things.

Don’t overwhelme yourself. Pick one thing master that and then go to next.

Freelance part time JavaScript developer - I can do this on desk or maybe toptal. I can also do it part time. This can be part time and help me to earn enough money. If I charge 30$/hr, and can get 20hr work per week. It would be 1,50lk per month with a bit of flexibility. The advantage is that I can travel the world and grow. I can afford all the things and live decently anywhere. I will be serving someone who wants to build somthing and has grown somewhat big. This is taking advantage of my old skills. I can also grow in the process.

Working full time employee - I can get a job in a consultancy abroad or India as a lead JS developer. Explore from there and grow in management as well. This will totally block the freedom. Will bring experience, knowledge and connection in its own senes and give me opportunity to grow by attending the seminars and all.

Bussiness of programming - I can...

So I found the fork in the road, I could have asked them to stop the bus little early, but then google map was showing I can take left. I wait and asked them to take the left.

It was a highway, they left me little ahead, with slight persuasion, then I didn’t know how to cross the road, back no way front I didn’t realise that it was underground pass. Checked Ola 60rs more. Booked. Came other side, cancelled cost 42rs. Then rebook, recancel twice. Then booked auto. Which round me. And oh I forgot the cake. Bettery was dying. Internet is gone. The distant anxious voice jumped in. And I am still doing my best, close the mobile data.

Came home, cold shoulder from prachi, call from papa, no interest in me, but the whole video talk by brother. A kind of comparative narrative start to take place. The voice is bit more worked up.

I am somewhat unaffected, somewhat affected. With perfect...
