You’re striving for creative breakthroughs. How do you balance planning and spontaneity effectively?

Creative breakthroughs happen when you’re having fun. Period.

Sure, you can do your frameworks, planning, all that stuff which your mind, experience, Google or AI tells you.. but real breakthroughs? They’re always an outcome of your mind having fun, coming up with things you never planned or imagined.

Keep consuming great quality ideas – movies, songs, cartoons, books.. build those dots to connect. But then? Just have fun. Play.

The more you don’t chase creative breakthroughs, the more they come to you.. like that butterfly which sits on your hand the moment you stop chasing it.

All the best

Fast, Cheap & Viral workshop at BharatFD

And the enthusiasm about all things creative, content and crazy.. continues! Grateful to have met and led the workshop with an enthusiastic team at BharatFD. What made this truly special was not just the team, but having family members and customers in the audience – made our discussion so much more wholesome. Every point, every question was focused on the ‘what’ and ‘how’. Sometimes the best ideas are hidden in unlikely places, all we need is a process.. a way.. to uncover them :) Thanks to Bishwajeet, AYUSH, Shashwat, Akshay and everyone in the team, wish you all the best! oh and my buddy Parivartan for making this happen..

Grateful ☺️

Grateful to read this.. that line about helping the younger version of you, it came from a place of truth. A decade back, travelling in trains, I was that person – figuring things out, looking for guidance. Today when I speak or write, it’s for that version of me, and everyone else on that journey.

Remembering where we started keeps us real, keeps us creating value. That’s the kind of world we want to live in, need to build – where everyone lifts everyone up :)

Thanks for the kind words. But more importantly, thanks for highlighting why we do what we do – to help others find their path faster than we did.

Fast, Cheap & Viral masterclass at Adda247

Had an incredible time with the ‘Fast, Cheap & Viral’ masterclass at Adda247 last week.. YouTube creators, teachers, marketing teams – all working to help millions prep for their dreams, in the heartland.. in their language, in their way.. the biggest ed-tech in India for regional learning..

Every session is enriching for me to learn more about different audiences, in this case.. a very different world.. a very different reality.. yet connected by the same thread

Thank you Swapnil Tripathi and Parivartan for making this happen, looking forward to the collaboration
