The most successful people I know have one thing in common:

they never stopped being kids.

Children don't draw thinking "will this sell?"

They're not calculating ROI on their sandcastles.

They're not avoiding risks because they might fail.

They're just completely absorbed in what they're doing.

That's the secret we lost somewhere between childhood and career building.

Most people want to make more money, so they start making trade-offs early.

Stay in the job that pays the bills. 
Don't take risks - what if you fail? 
Don't try new things - what if it's a waste of time?

What keeps them stuck? Attachment to outcomes. 

If it's not working immediately, it surely isn't worth it. 

But here's the thing: the difference between good and great is just iterations.

And you can only iterate when you're detached from the outcome.

When work feels like play (even if it looks like work to others), you:

• Put in more hours without burnout
• Experiment without fear of failure
• Iterate obsessively on details
• Stay engaged when others quit

Meanwhile, people optimizing purely for outcomes are:

- Picking battles based on guaranteed wins.
- Avoiding anything risky or uncertain.
- Needing weekends to recover from their weeks.

That's the reason they end up in a crisis, even though they are doing everything right.

They try to make money first, then find happiness.

But all they get is boredom and emptiness.

Meanwhile, the people who stayed curious?

They're not just happier.
They're winning.

Not because they ignored outcomes.

But because detachment from outcomes made them better at everything.

In a world where everyone optimizes for revenue and status...
...curiosity is the ultimate competitive advantage.

On this Children's Day, swap one question for another:

Instead of "Is this worth my time?"

Ask "Am I curious about this?"

Your inner child isn't dead. It's just waiting for you to stop keeping a score.

Building AI SaaS Tools from 🇮🇳 | Workflow Automations, AI & Marketing Consultant (Top 1%)

The "AI will kill SaaS" takes are missing the entire point.

I keep seeing otherwise brilliant people argue that AI will end Software-as-a-Service because now anyone can build software.

But here's what they're getting wrong:

SaaS was never really about the software.

It's about the SERVICE.

When a company buys Salesforce or Stripe or Snowflake, they're not paying for code they couldn't write themselves.

They're paying to NOT deal with:

→ Infrastructure scaling at 3am
→ Security compliance audits
→ Database migrations gone wrong
→ Support ticket floods
→ Feature prioritization debates
→ Technical debt accumulation

Yes, AI makes building software faster.

But building isn't the only hard part.

The real challenge is maintaining, scaling, and building a solid business around it.

That's the "as-a-Service" part.

It outsources the perpetual headache of operations, maintenance, and evolution.

AI doesn't change any of those business fundamentals.

Can AI help you build a CRM?

Absolutely.

But can you build and maintain a professional-grade CRM for less than $30/month?

Highly unlikely.

The point of making money is not so you can buy everything.

It's so no one can buy you.

Real wealth isn't the car, the watch, or the apartment.

It's options.

→ Say no to clients who drain you
→ Walk away from deals that don't feel right
→ Take a month off without checking your bank balance

Most people chase money for status.
They stay slaves to the thing they're chasing.

But when you build money for freedom?
It becomes a tool that works for you — not the other way around.

The goal isn't to own more things.
It's to own your time. Your choices. Your future.

That's leverage.
That's control.
That's real wealth.

When you're truly free, you're truly wealthy.

I got a lot of hate for posting about how Jira sucks. 

So, I decided to build an alternative. 

Introducing - Verk

A task manager, designed for human-AI collaboration.

When I started working on this project... 

My goal was NOT to build a better Jira. 

It was to make the whole "update your tickets" problem irrelevant.

When I interviewed a few users, I realised that the real issue wasn't Jira's interface or features. 

It was that task managers require humans to stop working to update them.

So we just... don't.

But what if a task manager could update itself?

With Verk, you can create a task. 

Assign it to a human, and work just like you would.

I made the task-manager minimalistic, and forced myself to use it, till the time I no longer missed Jira.

But the best part about Verk isn't just the UX.

I'm working on making this a platform, where you can create your own AI agents, and have them work on your tasks on auto-pilot.

Just like a human, the AI: 

→ Picks up the task 
→ Does the actual work 
→ Updates the status 
→ Posts the results 
→ Moves to done

The same task in traditional workflow: 

Create ticket → Open ChatGPT → Prompt → Copy output → Format → Update ticket → 30 minutes of context switching.

All task managers currently excel at tracking work, but you can now do much background work, and remove work that isn't "work".

This project has been months in building, but it's finally read to hit the ground.

Early adopters get:

• Free access while we're still in beta (bugs included)
• The ability to shape what this becomes
• A glimpse at what work looks like when humans and AI actually collaborate

Link to sign-up and try in comments. 

Let's make task management (and Jira tickets) irrelevant.
