Over the years, I’ve noticed a pattern in many companies. There’s a lot of effort put into celebrating employees and their families — family days at the office, pictures of kids drawing on whiteboards, parents being invited to see where their son or daughter works. It’s all heartwarming. These events can make a workplace feel […]
Over the last many months, I’ve had the privilege of working on the creation of a payin product from the ground up. Unlike improving an existing system, building something entirely new is about carving a path where none exists. It is filled with decisions that can seem small in the moment but carry long-term consequences,
There’s a natural temptation in product development to hold back until everything feels perfect. We imagine all the edge cases, all the possible client demands, all the future scenarios — and then we try to build for all of them. The result? Products delayed, opportunities missed, and teams caught in the illusion of “completeness.” My
So often, what stops us is not the difficulty of the task itself but the way we complicate it in our heads. We overthink.We plan endlessly.We wait for the “perfect” moment, the perfect shoes, the perfect conditions. And in doing so, we create so much inertia that we never begin. Take exercise.

At 45, if you live to 60, you have about 5,475 days left. That’s it.To 70, about 9,125 days.To 80, about 12,775. And yet, most of us live as if life were a race — each day measured by how much we achieved, how many boxes we ticked, how far we moved ahead of others.
In a world that constantly urges us to be louder, faster, and busier, I’ve found myself drawn instead toward the quieter path. Not because ambition is wrong, but because peace feels right. “The quieter you become, the more you can hear.” — Ram Dass I value quiet time. The kind where you can sit with
There’s too much noise around stablecoins. People talk as if they’re some mysterious invention wrapped in blockchain magic. But the truth is far simpler. Think about a prepaid card or wallet. You hand over $100 in real money. The company keeps it, and you get $100 of balance to spend through their system. Nothing complicated
