The first time GMV crossed $100k

First time in my life, GMV crossed $100k!

I have been doing startups since 2017. I've worked on multiple ideas and failed numerous times. The idea was all right; the problem was within me.

I did not know what I was doing. My goals were scattered, and my vision was blurred. However, failing so many times, I told myself I would work in a core industry. If I'm smart and can assemble an army of intelligent people, I will be able to survive the red ocean.

It took time to figure out myself, my weakness, and my strength.

I figured out the following:

  • What is the purpose of my life.
  • What I want in my life
  • How I can live even after my physical death.

Then, I did one thing before committing 100%.

I burned all the bridges and made retreat impossible. I constantly told my network what I was doing so that I became socially responsible for keeping me going.

I took the first step, and everything in the universe came to aid in my dreams.

  • My purpose is to serve people with my brain
  • I want to build a company where anyone can innovate without fearing the need for funds and livelihood.
  • I want to live even after my death by impacting so many lives; my work would keep me alive.

Then I went through my existing ideas. Oh, yeah, before that, I went on a cosmic journey with Guruji. I visited the library of infinite knowledge. I found a spark that showed me the EV idea.

Well, I started after some time.

I returned to my original idea that I had not copied from someone or heard about before making it.

  • A power source that works on something else other than R, F, and Phi
  • Wireless power transfer
  • Electric car

I weighted my ideas with all the metrics that I knew from accelerators.

EV got the highest score.

I was scared to start an EV company. I saw no way of making money from it to feed myself, or I needed something to start on this idea.

I was scared, so I had to apply autosuggestions to convince my mind that I could do it.

Then I went to my parents. I was ready to leave my high-paying job and "stable" life. I told my father that working in an EV company would make me happy.

Alhamdulilah, I'm happy now, even though the road is tough.

The next step is Road approval.

I told my team today that people should not deprive a determined person. Also, the person who got nothing to lose. They are dangerous.

If I die, I die on the road!
