We can build our digital estate, our reputation, our economic engine, our tribe - and it doesn't matter where we come from, what our race or background is.
If we have access to a computer connected to the internet, then the only limitation is our imagination, curiosity, and skills.
Using the internet and a bit of ingenuity, anyone can move up the economic ladder.

7 years ago I dropped out of college. As an ambitious teenager, college(at least the one I went to) felt very limiting. I had a very different expectation of what college should be like. I wanted to learn and build stuff but college education wasn't even moving in that direction.
Dropping out is an act of mini rebellion in Indian middle class families, I had some convincing to do. Thankfully, they let me do it and I moved to Bangalore, like any Indian interested in tech and startups would do.

My experience with learning modes - Text vs Video content
- Due to concentration lapse, it's easier to drop off for a few minutes from a video content (> 5 mins)
- Concentration lapses happen in text too, but its easier to re-read the para vs rewinding the video

- For consuming the same amount of content, text form is less time consuming than videos.
- To explain complex topics/situations, texts usually take more time building up the context than videos.
