Disclaimer:
From now on, I’m shipping my weekly notes on Saturdays. Yes, this one is coming on Sunday — because I wanted to write it like this. Lol. Sorry. Please keep that in mind.
🏋️ Health
Health-wise, this week was honestly –15. I’ve been on medication for some random issues, and it caused bloating and a lot of stomach pain. I really don’t like being bimar — it resets everything. I’ve realised something about my body again: since the day I was born, my endurance has been strong, but my immunity is close to zero. That’s just the truth.
Because of this, I had to slow down physically. I even took my first half-day off from work because of health, and that made me sad — I wanted to close projects that day. But it’s okay. I know myself. When I’m back, I’ll give 10x.
On the positive side, I ate relatively healthy this week. But I also realised I shouldn’t obsess too much over food right now — healing and balance matter more.
🧠 Brain Motivation
There’s this line I remember from Ninja Hattori:
“Try, try, but don’t cry.”
And that’s exactly how this week felt. I decided not to cry about things — just to do them. I felt the power of control. More patience. More silence. And when the final product came together, it was something else. Crazy stuff. The kind of result that only comes when you stay calm and keep moving.
💻 Work
Work was strong despite the health dip. I hit another 300K views video, and the previous ones are still performing well. One thing that made me really happy: my second attempt crossed 100K views.
My first video at this job only did 15K and honestly felt like a failure. But the second reel took off — same me, same tools, different outcome. That contrast taught me a lot. I’m so excited about this that I’m planning to record this entire journey as content.
I also shot a lot of reels for my personal brand and even shot a YouTube video. Hopefully, you’ll start seeing those roll out next week.
📖 Learning
This week’s learning was raw and simple:
Get shit done.
Just do it.
These words were on peak inside my head all week. Pure energy.
I also learned a lot about adaptation and gratefulness. Sometimes you need to come down a little for someone else. Sometimes those conversations make the other person comfortable. And sometimes, that’s where real progress happens. I felt that deeply this week.
📚 A Line from a Book (and beyond)
A line that stuck with me this week:
“Just unplug the thing that’s holding you back.”
My boss mentioned this while talking about the Elon Musk book, and that pushed me to finally start reading it this week. I also had a long conversation with SS about Elon’s way of thinking — how he just does things, moves fast, and commits fully. Those frameworks stay with you.
I didn’t get time to watch this yet, but it’s next on my list:

Also, I watched this video and loved it:
Why Good Movies Have Only 3 Colors

It gave me a new lens on visual storytelling.
☕ Small Wins
I learned how to make coffee.
I never had the privilege of owning a coffee machine, but at work we have a manual one. I still don’t understand the “grams” logic that baristas talk about, but I brewed my own coffee, frothed it, and honestly enjoyed the process. Small win, but felt good.
🎶 A Song I’m Listening To
Russ dropped something fresh, and it stayed on loop:

✍️ A Poem by Me
“Aa chal chale ambar ke paar,
jab phir log dekhein aur kahein—
kaash humara hota aisa saath.”
Translation / Meaning:
Let’s go beyond the sky,
to a place where people look at us and say,
“I wish we had a bond like that.”
For me, this poem is about companionship, aspiration, and the quiet desire to build something so real that it inspires others.
💭 Closing Thoughts
This week was full of nausea — physically and mentally. But I see it as a rescheduling week, a reset designed to make my life better in the long run. Even with all that, the energy and fire inside me are still alive. And I’m not letting that die.
We move.
