Doing too many things is holding you back. Take concentrated bets.

Dropped my parents off at the Bangalore airport this morning and drove back in silence. They offered to take a cab. The airport is over an hour away. A 2.5-hour round trip, easy. I laughed because I’ve seen them do this their whole life. For us. For family. For friends. 4:30 am train for a distant cousin? Dad would be up at 3:30 to drop. Mom would be packing paranthas like it was a ritual. No Uber. No Swiggy. No complaints. That extra effort was how they showed love. And because of that, every visit felt like an event. Every send-off mattered. There was connection in the inconvenience. Today, convenience wins. We book an Uber instead of picking someone up. We order food instead of cooking. We send gifts from Amazon instead of scouting something personal. It’s all easier. But we’re less in it. Less present. Less connected. That’s the problem with the “much easier” life. Effort is what forges meaning. And high-effort people? They’re impossible to ignore in everything they do. *** Here’s them with their grandson in Kandy. Generations apart. Same energy.

Judged Warpspeed by @devfolio and lightspeedvp.twitter today. If you're in your 20s with the flexibility to move out of your hometown in any other part of India, drop that city and move to Bangalore.

Imagine becoming an onchain founder to create a world without brokers and realising that 67% of the job is writing tweets to impress other nerds without jobs.

I think about this a lot. The why. All the noise and speculation in our space can be blinding. Important to remember the why. The internet has led to immense opportunity for anyone that participated in it. - Sellers reaching new audiences globally - Creators earning from their content through brand deals and platforms - Developers in any part of the world building software and getting paid for it - Investors finding equitable opportunities to invest We're more connected than ever. We're more productive than ever. If you ignore the pessimists, we're doing better than ever before in human history. But. Just because things are great doesn't mean they can't get better. This internet is broken. It's run by large platforms with conflicting incentives. We need a new internet platform. Onchain.

I am now convinced that the best way to explore a new city is to do a 5-10km run there.
