CIRCULAR

I have fallen many times, I have stood up many times. Everybody around me is achieving something. last four years have been a dump. I did not grow my abilities as much as I should have. I know what it takes to succeed. It takes good decisions, hard work and little bit of luck.

What if, I follow all the keys to success and do not fall. for once in my life, I try not to fall. not to slack. not to waste my time.

And I promise myself, If I can do that for one whole month, I would go to Goa. So, lets see, today is 28th feb. If by 1 April, I have done everything right, in terms of not lazying around and not wasting my time and always working constructively, I would sit in the bus by 8 o'clock.

Deal?

Praised be ye! Dark Matter!

So, here I sit, defeated. Storming on my keyboard, staring at my screen. I am again at the same point of my life where I was about four years ago, restarting on the path to glory. I watched Birdman today, that made me think. I want to make the exact kind of audience. But I always shy away from even attempting for cinema, even a tiny bit of it, as I think that there is no audience for it. And you know what, Birman is about that. how we as a race built the tools to make such kind of things and still ended up making shit. we build great tools to make lame products. Camera was an invention way ahead of its time, yet today we make shitty cinema more than the kind of cinema that matters.

the movie also got me thinking, I only have a few decades with me to do what I want to do. And if I don't go for them things, my bed ridden days are going to be of excruciating pain. Thus, I need to start now.

I have planned one routine that might help me. When I was meditating, I tried to go to the core of my DNA to the address which decides and controls my will power, and I kicked it up a notch. just one tiny bit. it was two sticks. I made it three.

Because while meditating I also noticed one thing. While meditating, we could not even guess correctly when one minute ends. we can only try, but most of the times its gonna be wrong. because inside everything is dark. we are actually not connected to our surroundings. we are not a product of it. our surrounding is just a mere figment of our imagination that is built up on the imaginary boundations and rules of our subconscious. and they can be broken or moulded to our favour and comfort. as a matter of fact, we often do. and some part of our consciousness knows this, but we are not strong enough to accept the power we contain. hence, god.

but all that some other day.

you know the universe if made up of 80% of dark matter. those are the things that do not behave the way they should according to the science we know. they do not obey the laws we know of. yet they are in some way extremely important in the formation of universe. I mean, there is 80% of universe that we do not understand. 80% of the things that happen in the world is out of our brain's reach. yet we claim that we know of life. yes we know, but only 20%.
the rest 80% is all dark matter. and its inside all of us. and everybody can reach that source of origin. some have reached too, and they label it as god. I would refer to it only as dark matter though. its kind of cool.

Is it dark because we are too weak to see the light?

okay, so I also have an idea of a product that came to me just now.
we all send smileys/emoticons to people right? we also send flowers images to people we know and care about. sending them a digital replica is actually a part our social relationship. what if we can make it not digital? what if, whatever you want to send to someone, you send them physically?

Like if you want to send someone flowers, you actually browse through our catalogue, with real pictures, choose the billing address and shipping address and you send it. without too much hassle and anything. you can send your mother some chocolates, you can send a meal to someone, an anniversary gift, anything. and you can ask unique sellers (who are ready to deliver on their own, express and dtc based both) to list their catalogue worldwide. from laptops to meals anything.

on a completely different note,

when you are building the app for foodos, in the popular combo section, the primary option should be choose your dish. what you want to eat. a person is most clear about that only. he doesn't often go about browsing for restaurants. first, let them select what they want to eat, like chole bhature. not when he/she taps on the button of chole bhature, they get multiple combos from multiple restaurants, with varying prices and delivery charges. its a good idea, lets make it work.

HardWork Protocol initiate

So yeah, I have fallen down and started up back again almost a million times now. But I would continue to do that for a zillion time more until that last fall. Its almost daybreak, and i realize one thing. It doesn't matter how many times you fall or start back up again, because in the grand scope of things, thats what you gotta do.
A thought just dawned over me. I have brains, I like to believe. More than what average people have. What if i combine it with massive hardwork? I mean, thats the way to glory right? what if i hit it?
I mean, I have brains and I am lucky. If thats what you call luck. The only thing that I lack is hard work. I am way too lazy to be successful. What if for the remaining three-four months of my college, I hustle so hard that I reach somewhere? Is that not possible?

On another note, There is a joke that erupted between me and my business partner, Aayush sharma today, after a string of restaurant owners asked if we are brothers. Flipkart went through the same thing right? Sachin Bansal and Binny Bansal. so much so that whenever both of their names are featured somewhere, it is mentioned in a bracket that they are not related. Thus, its only derivative that we are going to be a billion dollar company yo!

On a different, more funny, real joke kind of mode, we are buying foodpanda in an year. and we might just put flipkart too, if we get a good combo offer from somewhere :P

Good Bhrammamuhurta everyone!

2:43 PM

I talk about changing the world, changing perceptions of the the community I dwell in, but then when I go to sleep, I forget about everything and sleep for 12-13 hours straight. This is not done. And I am not starting up again. because I am tired of giving up again and again. Everytime I make a mistake, I forget about it and start my life again. But it doesn't work that way right? Thus, the mistakes I make, today, will decide my tomorrow. So will my hard-work, dedication and perseverance. I need to get that to the very core.
I have all the power of the world to achieve my goals. I am not any different from the founders of tinyowl or foodpanda or anybody else. Its just that, when I am sleeping, they are toiling hard. When I am sleeping, they are thinking about expanding, growing. The only differences between me and them is dedication, hard-work and perseverance.
So, I will try my best to attain my everyday goals. because I need to be working twice as hard as them if I want to reach somewhere. the world doesn't give success on a plate. you have to build that plate, atom by atom, molecule by molecule.
I am not perfect, I am way behind perfection. But if I run everyday towards it. I might reach there someday. Goodmorning at 2:43pm.
