People say entrepreneurship is about being driven and ambitious. That's the first lie.
It's hard. You watch everything around you growing faster, people way behind you getting funded, everyone bragging about the Bali trip or whatever cool thing they're doing, just noise. Sometimes you join the noise. But the only thing I'm actually thinking about even when I'm in it is the startup. What do I do next. How can I improve the product for my customers.
The best place for me is sitting and building what I want to build. Everything else feels like wasting time not doing what I want to do.
Doesn't matter if I'm in Delhi, Bangalore or Goa. First thing I think when I wake up is what today, how do I make it better, what do I change, how will Gen AI eat this if it comes, what's the next step.
Rest is just noise. Just plain noise.
