Move away from your home town | #145

Moving to high growth city is the key

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.

Paul Graham once wrote that “every city whispers something in your ear”.

• LA whispers “You’re not beautiful enough”

• NYC whispers “You’re not rich enough”

• SF whispers “You’re not ambitious enough”

Riten (Fueler.io)

told me something similar last year when I worked at Fueler. He said ‘Come to Bangalore, there are a lot of like-minded people like you’.

It wasn’t until I visited Bangalore a couple of months ago that I realized there were so many smart people working at different places. The vibe (and the weather) was different.

There is a lot of growth in cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, etc. Having visited all cities, I have seen a lot of opportunities in Tier 1 cities.

There’s the community of smart people solving problems, meetups happening every week, it’s the ecosystem in the cities that gives you opportunities.

The Paul Graham quote was taken from Shaan Puri’s recent newsletter called ‘Proximity is power’. Here he shared how moving out of the country he was living in changed his life and what actually worked for him.

Here are a few things I wrote about my Bangalore trip that you can read:

1. Walk to a random person to talk

2. Make Twitter Friends

3. This definition of luck changed my working style
