How Serendipitous the World is?

Photo by Rodolfo Clix on Pexels.com

The day started with a promise of new sunshine. Yesterday, I talked with one of our directors Saad bin Abdullah discussing the future prospects of Grit Technologies Ltd. We just met a bald guy named Mr. Imran who is on the same page of EV mania with us.

So yes, now it's time to start over everything again, from scratch maybe?

Well, we need money to do that.

Yes, time to meet your angel investor again

But this time, the situation is a little bit different. We know exactly what are we up to. We have a detailed work schedule and a tiny amount of required investment on the record.

So at 7 pm, we met our AI, and after 1.5 hours long discussion, apparently (or perhaps indirectly, I don’t care though) he denied to buy our idea.

No money, goodbye honey!

It was somewhat expected, still, the human mind feeds on hope. I had a little ray of optimism convincing myself: ‘Well, this time we shall kick the gas pedal. We have already spent almost a year chasing a wild Chinese goose. We have spent all our runaway, we have almost made sure that job is not our option anymore. A 1-year blank CV is gonna slap us in front of any employer.’

Well, long story cut short, I was swept away by an emotional surge. Chronologically, I forgot to bring my ebike battery pack in the Garage, so went up all over the 7th floor again to bring it back from the locked office, then I started pedaling with an absent mind, and then had a severe road accident.

Nah, that’s just one hand.

However, an angel named Shibly bhai (NDC 09 batch) had helped me to manage the after-accident disaster. He brought me two bottles of drinking water to wash my hands, took me to the nearest pharmacy, and on top of that, paid my medical bill (I didn’t have enough money).

The world still has got some good souls, faith in humanity restored.

Okay, my misery didn’t end up there yet. After the accident, I had just discovered my bicycle chain has been completely broken. The only way I can reach my home is by going full electric.

I could barely press my cycle handles with the broken phalanges. Nevertheless, I had no other option than to start my ride homebound.

9:20 pm.

After 10-15 minutes of excruciating cruising, my hands started to burn like hell.

And all of a sudden, it started raining.

Or storming maybe.

Right in the middle of the main road, my cycle suddenly stopped operating, perhaps rainwater had damaged the ebike controller. I somehow managed to stand on the isle of a footpath, rinsing on the heavy pour, with broken fingers, waiting for my ebike to restart.

Well, it did actually start for another 5 minutes. But the storm compelled me to take shelter inside a bus counter (London bus counter at fakirapool, I am grateful to them for allowing me to hop in with a soaked body).

after 40 minutes (felt like an eternity) stopping by at the counter, since the rain wasn’t signing to cease anyway, I started walking with my wrecked cycle once again.

Then another angel had rescued me from further disaster. He came in the form of a rickshaw puller, took me and my ebike on his rickshaw, and safely took us to my home.

The end of a tragic day.

I guess it’s nothing compared to the daily struggles real heroes have in their everyday lives. Still, we all have our own stories to tell. One day I will not be in this world. I don’t know what legacy I am gonna leave for my future generation. But I will certainly miss my young me.

When I had a head full of dreams, hope like mount Everest, events of everyday foolish episodes,

still, I had lived my life as I wanted to live!

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 ...
