Week 64 – Getting schooled

 ·  ☕ 5 min read

Featured Image

The last week feels a bit short, maybe because I published my last blog just 3 days ago 😀

Anyway, I am on time this week and that is all that matters.

Personal Highlights

So this week, I don’t have a lot to share, but I do have interesting stuff to share, and what is that you might ask 😼

Well Well Well!

Last week I didn’t remember if I mentioned it or not that I put out a tweet to which some guy replied and we connected on DM only to find out that he wanted to mentor me and few of my friends.

To which I agreed and we started with the call on Thursday and it was amazing.

Maybe because there are only 4 of us but regardless he was able to share the stuff which I haven’t heard anywhere else and do keep in mind that I have consumed a lot of freelancing stuff in the past but still, what he said was very to the point with whatever I have been thinking about the stuff.

Clearly, he has a lot of experience, and years of freelancing have made him a very good speaker as well. However, it is kinda crazy that he has such a small following on social media.

He can be like the next Varun Mayya easily. I hope he doesn’t read all these and gets offended or something 😥💀

But all in all, I very much needed the mentorship and the feedback from him and it’s going to continue for 5 more days. Let’s see how valuable his feedbacks are going to be 🤲

Business Updates

Regarding the meeting and feedback from Harklash, I will be changing a lot of things and Octalancer might take a bit longer to function the way I want it to.

By the way, this week I was in another meeting with a Crypto startup founder from the US, and even though I wasn’t able to directly sell to him, I hope I can do something for him in the future.

It was my first time talking to someone from the US and also he was quite old and experienced 🤐 So I was a bit nervous too, but you know I have this shield of overconfidence which protects me from such scenarios 😎

Thoughts from the past week

My Favourites from the Week

Blogs/Articles 📑

Did not read.

Twitter Threads 🧵

Did not come across.

Book Highlights📚

Did not read as I am already consuming a lot from the freelance thingy and I don’t like flooding my brain with a lot of information.

VIDEOS 📼

Movies 🎥

I re-watched the entire
Iron Man Franchise from 1 to 3

Ironmanfran
Because I wanted to refresh some of my memory before What If’s episode ft. Iron Man comes out. So, I watched Iron Man 1 before that and rest of the movies afterwards.

Series 📺

What If S1E6
whatifs1e6
It was such a crappy episode that I had to watch the old Iron Man movies to not only refresh but also wipe this episode from my mind 🤮

Tech Tip 🧙‍♂‍

Create Zoom and Meet custom virtual background using Canva instead of using the default ones, if you use them.

Songs 🎶

Eiffel 65 - Blue
Can’t believe they used this song at the starting of Iron man 3.

Goal(s) for the next week 🥅

  • Make an offer page for any particular service
    [which will happen anyway, thanks to the regular calls from the freelance challenge 😌]

  • Talk to more experienced people to learn more.
    I have been fortunate enough to talk to like 4 high net worth people this week and I absolutely loved talking to them.

    It’s crazy how much we can learn from networking with people who are higher up in the game of life 🤯

    “Networking, so far, has been pleasantly surprising”. I did not expect what popular YouTubers say is just common sense for most of them XD
