Reminder Notes

1. Thinking ability sharpens gradually. We fortify our brain by resonating the same thoughts again and again. In other words, we deposit our thoughts inside the brain. A metaphoric resemblance can be cholesterol deposits inside our hearts. There are two types of cholesterol: LDL (Bad one) and HDL (Good one). Considerably, most of the time we consume the LDL more: just like our bad thinking deposits inside the brain, Asif coined this term.

and eventually, our thinking process becomes toxic.

2. Serendipitous, treacherous, whatever you call it, we are on the verge of a moral breakdown to KKD International. The 65 years old man has thought almost everything that we were planning to do with our company. Shamefully we preserved our idea secret and kept listening to him. Probably, he will think that we have snatched his idea; BETRAYAL!

Can we go for a partnership?

3. Recency effect is bogging me down. Prof AYM’s idiosyncratic attitude towards investing the money is making me impatient, and I regret, I am kind of forgetting all the favors I have got from him.

Should not be this way, always remember past favors. Be grateful, have gratitude.

4. Bangladeshi people haven’t developed commitment or professionalism, and this is a sign of a growing economy. When people can start their own businesses and be their own bosses, is there any point to be loyal to a company?

Probably yes, probably no. Think about operating from abroad.

5. Doing business in Bangladesh is like accepting to swallow a glass intentionally. It will excruciate you constantly, continuously, ruthlessly. Our government is corrupt, bureaucrats are corrupt, general people’s attitudes are full of negativity.

However, thoughts from Prof. AYM, not my words, are yet to go there.

6. I have still a chance to see beyond the present. As all renowned businessmen say, they made many mistakes, which should not have been. I should try to undo those mistakes.

Most of those mistakes will arise because I am still unaware of them. Need to actively try to be aware; Difficult!

A Trader with an Investment Mindset

Invest in good stock... Being a finance student, I have always been told that investors make much more profit compared to traders in the long run.  In a sense, that statement is apparently true. If you take the historical gain reference of traders vs. investors, the latter will come triumphant without any confusion. But remember, few traders make much more profit compared to investors.  For the traders, the profit curve is seemingly positively skewed, only a few can truly make a profit, but most of them lose money and cancel out the average profit. For the investors, the profit curve follows a normal distribution and returns an average profit to the clients in the long haul. And most importantly, it is always the small ticket-sized shares that give you the best return. For instance, a stock priced at BDT 10 has the potential to go up to 20 or 30 TK, giving you a return from 100% to 200%. But imagine a good stock that is already priced at BDT 600, how much can it go up? I alway...

I Know How Fake Everything Is

We had an AC installation project today at Manikgonj. Our technician team went to the site, saw a 30'' thick wall that has to be pierced for copper piping. And they backed off. I was communicating over the phone with my PSL, with a heavy voice, pretending everything is under control.  Those are miniature life hick-ups that an entrepreneur has to face, regularly, and for me - intentionally. Only a few have the guts to continue after all these. I want to be one of them of course. January 2022 Update: Another year has gone by without any fruitful progress. Still, we don't see any tangible source of revenue. We are kinda parasite of Muspana. This burns me like hell, I wanted to live an independent life. That's why I chose to be an entrepreneur Now is the real challenge. What value am I providing to my users? What is the one big vision that can change the lives of billions? Can I acquire a big investment ever? Why am I so self-centered? Am I all after money? Today a kid 10 y...

Network = Net Worth

Need to boost up my networking skill So far I have been a socially awkward person. I don't like public gatherings, I avoid phone calls, even I don't have any active social media account. For me, deciding to do business was an internal soul call, which I hardly could relate to my shortcomings. Almost three years back when I was an employee of LankaBangla Finance, my SME head told me, ''Why don't you laugh man? There is a Chinese Proverb you know - if you can't laugh, don't open a shop.'' I thought a smiling face is a mere redundant verbal expression. Unnecessary, showy, sycophantic.  At this moment, after almost a year in the business world, I am to words changing my mind. In fact, a smiling face can win million hearts, and those million hearts are money in business. Am I sounding too commercial? Probably am, but smiling is also prophylactic. If you love yourself, you should smile. Another reason behind smiling is - human nature is precoded to accept ...
