Did you read my last email? It was about keeping things simple to get maximum results.
If you missed it, I would highly recommend reading it. Just search for my name in your inbox ๐

โI will post daily on my book review Instagram page and also create daily videos on YouTube”
I often come across such responses from my students sharing their side project ambitions in response to Chapter 3 of my free email course ๐
But here’s the thing โ we all get a bit too excited sometimes.
๏ปฟ๏ปฟ๐ซ Multiple Side Projects at Once
I’ve been there, done that.
You probably have too.
We get so pumped up with ideas that we want to do it all, right now ๐คฉ
But let me share the golden nugget of wisdom I’ve been preaching to everyone these days โ avoid the temptation of diving into multiple side projects simultaneously ๐
๐ฐ๏ธ Take It Slow, One Project at a Time
Instead of scattering your energy, focus on one thing at a time.
Focus on one project and figure out what it demands โ time, money, team members, and whatnot.
๏ปฟ๏ปฟ๐ช Master One, Then On to the Next
Once you’ve got the hang of handling one project without turning your life into a circus, then you’re ready for the next challenge.
It’s like leveling up in a game ๐
โ TODAYโS ACTION ITEM
Your mission is to commit to a single side project.
Only when you find yourself thinking, “Hey, this is kinda easy now,” should you even think about expanding your empire ๐ฏ
Remember, it’s not a sprint; it’s a marathon. Happy side-projecting! ๐
Reply to this email – what is that one side project that youโre absolutely focused on and what is your progress on that?
โ WHAT I DID THIS WEEK
Watched a late-night show of the movie “Fighter” followed by a wild 3 AM long ride with friends. The cinematography of the movie was on point, and those aerial combat scenes were next level! ๐ฉ๏ธ
Guess what never gets old? The Republic Day parade! I love those displays of patriotism and military precision. Do you still get a kick out of watching the parade? It’s like a tradition for me ๐ซก
We decided to hit up Lonavala, a nearby hill station. The experience of eating hot bhajiya on the top of mountains is always mesmerizing ๐๐ง
Watched “DC League of Super-Pets” and it’s a treat. Imagine Superman’s dog Krypto saving all superheroes – Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Black Adam, and more. A must-watch for the DC fans out there ๐ฆธ
I got a fresh copy of “Make Epic Money” by Ankur Warikoo. If you’ve followed his finance playlist on YouTube, you are not missing out on anything – I totally expected that. I just pre-ordered it for some extra goodies for being an early bird in his pre-launch event. Fan-boy moment? Absolutely. Currently, I’m 60% deep into it within 2 days โ blame it on his compelling writing style ๐
Published 1 video and now running late for 2nd one because I was busy last weekend ๐ถ
This week felt like being on the fast lane. Too many things that I didnโt even put in this email.
๐ AROUND THE WEB
Watched โOn Quitting Youtubeโ by MKBHD. He talks about why several OG YouTubers are quitting YouTube even after YouTube is a dream job for millions of people.
I often get to hear from my creator friends how they donโt see themselves creating content forever.
Reply to me with your thoughts on this topic and I will share my thoughts in my next weekโs email.
Till then, sayonara ๐
