Learning No. 8

There are so many things that build up your life like browsing through websites, playing, meeting friends, clicking photographs, opening a bank account and others such small things.

So you have a job!!
When you are employed with someone, you do all of these on your employers time. Even if you spend a day browsing or playing, you are being paid for it at the end of the month.

What happens when you are working for yourself?
Half of the useless things go out of the window and you optimize on the rest. Now this may mean not going to a concert, playing less and working more. Yes, you gain the independence you always craved for, but it comes with a responsibility, towards your idea, towards people who trust you and towards your bank account.

Your meeting went good. You had a nice conversation, you got great feedback and you can think of a couple of ways in which you can go forward in the future. Well, looks like you had a productive morning.

Wait.

Did you get any money? Did he buy what you went there to sell? No.

So you had a nice time and have hopes of getting money in the future. This is business development alright, but if you are in a startup, you need clients now. So don’t be lead into complacency by having a good meeting. Get the cash.

Remember that, water like feedback is abundantly available and very valuable but does not bring much money when sold.

Why this blog?
Things are happening, life and beliefs are changing. And here I am posting once in a while.

Why this name?
There are few things I love Ideas, photography, poetry and people.

And all of them come true while I am pacing the streets. It is my homegrown method of doing my MBA for http://www.cocubes.com/, a long course in photography that goes on for life, touching heart and mind and forcing me to write and letting me meet more humans.

Helping me be a wanderer and reminding me constantly that there is only 'One life to live'

Lets go.
