Are you really curious? | #100
What helped me write 100 newsletters
Hi, I'm Pranav
Every Friday, I share my process, thoughts, stories, ideas, and weekly recommendations. We're a community of 150+ curious people reading these newsletters.
Today is the 100th issue of the newsletter and I am very grateful to you for joining the newsletter and reading them every week. It wouldn’t have been possible because of you. Here’s a short note from me
The other two things helped me greatly in my writing, chai and curiosity. They helped me a lot in my content journey.
Curiosity is a very integral part of my life. It helped me in my imagination, question a lot, explore new places, meet new people and learn new things.
In my school, I never enjoyed the subjects that forced me to memorise for the exams, but rather I enjoyed learning out of curiosity. I learnt more in the subjects that I enjoyed the most. Recently I was learning to use Figma, a designing tool, and I am enjoying it a lot. It’s an amazing tool.
I’ll end the newsletter with one note. Learn for curiosity, not for marks or showing people you know a lot. Remember the character Rancho from 3 Idiots? He thought out of the box and asked a lot of questions. Because of this, he was removed from the classroom because he didn’t give an appropriate answer to the question ‘What is a machine’, but then he sat in another room as he said, ‘Knowledge is everywhere, take it from from wherever you are getting it’.
