Is DevRel a role for you? ft. Aditya Oberai
Unsolicited Tips/Tricks

If you want to build habit-forming products as a student entrepreneur/product manager or just an innovator, read this book called “Hooked” by Nir Eyal. Here’s a tweet where I summarized the introduction of this book.
My 2 cents around “Motivational Talks.”
Motivational talks don't work most of the time for most people.
You may get pumped after listening to them but not enough to take action sometimes.
That's actually called "Synthetic Inspiration."
Real inspiration does not come from the outside - it comes from a deep place within us that demands that we take action.
The inspiration from talks, movies, or books provokes inspiration but does not provide sufficient follow-through.
Motivation without a clear direction has little or no value.
And, the direction is insufficient without knowledge, skills, or support.
Some people only need the slightest nudge to get inspired, while others need a stronger, more sustainable source.
However, it is not the inspiration itself that is long-lasting.
Great inspirations work so well because of their ability to be relatable.
The real inspiration that will sustain you is deep within you.
You don't have to spend on manufactured inspiration because you found the real thing right under your nose.
