i am that kid who’s always been a little cracked in the head.
there've been signs.
so at 16, i ran an event services company.
the first project we took up was running a citywide motor treasure hunt.
imagine convincing full-blown adults to drive across the city on a sunday morning to hunt for treasure.
ikr. stupid idea — who would do that?
we almost gave up.
broke many “rules,” and pulled it off one night before a nation-wide covid lockdown.
made me realize that this world is built for bureaucrats, not builders.
need x years of experience to do this, yada yada…
all systems were once someone's experiment.
for the first time in my life, i discovered what i call the grey space.
a place where you create history, not just be part of it.
rules don’t exist here because nobody has done it before.
being an anomaly became my thing.
joined unis as a mechanical engg, dropped out in a year. switched to studying econ and finance without ever learning the first thing about supply and demand.
i discovered: if i didn’t like where i was headed, i could change it.
spent semesters at unis becoming an economist, and summers in blr working in startups backed by yc. didn’t spend much time at home.
learned what it takes to build (or so i thought).
summer of my junior year, i picked up a camera with one goal: try something more.
documented my life on ig for 200 days straight. result—400 followers.
learned the hard way the world owes you nothing. consistency guarantees nothing.
then, in a serious effort to re-build my career, i moved into finance and worked with a venture capital firm. climbed the ladder and got into management consulting at mbb.
mere signals and status games didn’t suit me.
spent my weekends documenting my builds on @lifetwo.club.
we blew up in less than 30 days — those 200 days of content were worth it.
law of accumulation is actually a thing.
quit my job at mbb.
now i am starting again with way more than my 16-year-old self knew.
moved cities, joined @aspora to get close to building.
and still spend weekends figuring stuff out @lifetwo.club.
over the years, i’ve become obsessed with being hard to describe.
if every time i said no to something i wanted and moved on was wasteful, then life itself would be a waste of time.
reality is far more malleable than most people realize.
i don’t have a five-year plan.
i will try 100 more things in one lifetime, decide maybe they’re not for me, or double down on them.
been a rebel for as long as i can remember.
onwards and upwards.
its going to be a long uphill battle, every once in a while ill show you what i learn. if you want in. drop your mail below.
