Work that feel like play | #104
If life was a hackathon, work will feel like play
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.
I was reading a newsletter by Startup Social and I resonated with one of his newsletters. He wrote about why we should pine play in whatever work we do. He mentions a quote by Naval Ravikant that says, “Your biggest competitive advantage is finding the things that feel like play to you, but look like work to others”.
I feel that’s the best way to learn and do new things. We should find play in work or as Ali Abdaal says to have a post it note in front of him asking him “What would it look like if it was fun?”. It will help you get back to work.
Last month, I got into the founder’s office of a New Age Sales School called Hive School. I helped them make their first website on Framer and Figma. I was new to both tools. It was an amazing working experience working on the website as the deadline to launch the website was near and we, the founder Nikhil, and I sat every day to get the progress going. It was like a hackathon where we were coming together and working on the project.
So, what’s the fun of the work you do?
