Surviving Hard Times

I have seldom seen a continuous steep, be that my career, relationship, leisure, or hobby. Every single time I have to face highs and lows, the eternal law of eternity.

But however, surviving hard times is not easy. Nothing seems to work out when everything falls apart. 2021 has been so far my queue of hard times – every day I wait for another blow from somewhere to wreck me out.

When it seems like all going wrong, perhaps I am the reason in the first place. The world hasn’t vouched for my wellbeing. Society, friends, or family can’t help from the core.

None to blame.

Rather, I am solely responsible for my failures. successive failures are creating sequential feedback loops for me. I am being more restless day by day. More impatient, more toxic, more disheartened.

It’s time to stop.

As Newton described in his first law of motion, only external force can change the state of an object.

Otherwise, things will eternally go wrong for inertia.

I started to wake up early in the morning and meditate for 15 minutes. Eventually, that turned into my habitual ritual, but I am yet to adopt it regularly. Often I skip my morning routine for trifling excuses (Like today).

Also, I am escaping my feelings. I am feeling bad and left out, but denying to accept the state.

It is what it is.

I think I am a health-conscious individual. But still, my recent exercising chart sheet and food routine will differ. I have been eating unhealthy, sleeping more than required, skipping my exercise schedule.

And whatnot.

But not anymore.

Today, I, hereby declare, I shall end my miserable days.

I shall put external force to bring positivity in my life.

Let’s see how far I can go.

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 always calcula

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
