How to make real friends (Builders)
Hi, I'm Pranav
I work at Hive School, which is India’s First Sales School. I also create content on my YouTube where I share my processes and learnings.
Every Friday, in this newsletter, I share my process, thoughts, stories, ideas, and weekly recommendations.
In the COVID pandemic, I had nothing to do. But I started consuming good knowledgeable content, I also saw the 1982 Mahabharat, lots of podcasts, etc.
But after someone’s recommendation, I joined Twitter even before Instagram and LinkedIn, and today, I realize it was the best decision.
After Tweeting for some time and getting to know the platform, I started to connect with people. Once, I came across someone’s newsletter through Twitter and wanted to share some feedback about it, so I DMed her the feedback and later got on a call. That’s how I started to connect with people.
Later on, I started connecting with some of the cool project builders, content creators, startup founders, etc. Last 4 years, Twitter and the Internet have been my unofficial universities, as I have learned a lot and found great people.
Twitter helped me build my proof of work as well. Fueler grew on Twitter. So, while I was making my Fueler projects, I got connected with a lot of Fueler community folks. They also have a great community. The Fueler Community is also great, helped me with a lot of things.
One instance was when I went to Bangalore in July for a week and the Fueler Bangalore community hosted me in a great way. We had a great time together. We used to play UNO till 2-3 am, have dinner together, Celebrate a friend’s birthday, and gave a great gift to him 😅 (those who know they know), I always had a notebook while talking to them as got some valuable notes from them.
Also,
lives in Bangalore, so he asked if I wanted to live in the Fueler Office and I stayed there for some time. It was a great time staying there. I was staying with Anshu, one of the core Fueler Team members, and we had fun making food, eating uttapam in a roadside cafe, and playing Uno.If it hadn’t been for me connecting with people on the internet, I wouldn’t have enjoyed it so well. It’s always best to hang out with the smartest folks. You get to learn a lot.
