Just launched my first personal effort on @ProductHunt - my newsletter! It gets even better - it is currently trending at #1 :).

Here's a bit about myself and the newsletter 👇🏻

I started my career about 8 years back in IB at J.P. Morgan. I worked there for 3 years, but that life wasn't for me :/

Ever since, I've been building my startups and feel that I've finally found my calling. I enjoy "going to work" and that continues to bewilder my friends :P

As entrepreneurs, we have about 95% failures and 5% successes (at least in my experience). While we hear about the successes, we often don't hear about the things that went wrong.

And even if we do, they are about the Musks and Jobs of the world.

I yearn for real stories I can learn tangible things from. So, about 3 months back, I decided to give it a try myself by sharing the lessons I've learnt as an entrepreneur.

A typical story I write, would include:
- A theme around startup concept
- My first-hand experience

I don't give advice but share my stories - each person can then adapt it to their contexts. Advice is rigid, boring and doesn't lend itself across scenarios - hence, un-useful.

Finally, to finish up, here are a few examples of my past stories/newsletters 👇🏻
