It’s High Time To Build Side Projects

In my last email, I demonstrated the comparison of ChatGPT prompts. I am sure you will find it useful in your office! You can use it on your side projects as well 😎

If you missed it, just search my name in your inbox and my email will be welcoming you on a red carpet.

BTW – let’s talk about side projects.

Have you started working on it? 🤔

“Do I really need to do it? I am happy with my job and what should I do on the side?”

Most of the full-time professionals that I know have exact same thought process. Are you one of them?

It’s high time 💀

Start building side projects now!

WHY?

Suppose you dedicate 2 focused hours a day to building a side project. Then?

It’s a win-win situation irrespective of whether you succeed or fail.

What if you succeed?

Congratulations! You will unlock another income stream to support your expenses.

What if you fail?

Congratulations! You are now extremely attractive to any employer because you’re a self-motivated intrapreneur who brings dozens of new ideas, experiences and skills to the table.

Intrapreneurship (yup, that’s a real term) is the act of behaving like an entrepreneur while working within a large organization.

The experience you get during the journey is 100x more valuable than any MBA, MAANG, title, or literally anything!

TODAY’S ACTION ITEM FOR YOU

It’s been a while since you opted for my email course that talked about side projects.

Did you start anything?

How is it going?

Reply to this email with all the details.

If you feel that you need to talk with me or similar-minded people, let me know. I am happy to jump on a call with you.

WHAT I DID THIS WEEK

I was mostly on a digital detox.

This week was a blast! We had an annual office meetup at Lonavala and I met most of my team members for the first time.

People are so different in real life from what we see them from a small Zoom window. We often realize this when we meet them in person.

BOOK I AM CURRENTLY READING

No books as I was on an office tour and then extended my workation. I won’t be reading any books for the next few days as I will be traveling to the North-Eastern part of India.

I am in flight right now ✈

Vacay time! 😁

AROUND THE WEB THIS WEEK

I was barely on the web this week. But here’s one tool that I absolutely love for sharing large files with my friends and colleagues.

Wormhole App lets you upload files with end-to-end encryption, generate a link and share.

It’s nice to share large screencast videos with clients or share movies with your friends.

No login is required 🙂
