This is a now page inspired by Derek Sivers.
These are things that are currently on top of my mind now (work, reading, music, other random stuff).
August 3rd, 2023
- Things on the work front are shaping up slowly. I am being very deliberate about what I want to do next, so meeting many people, gathering their advice and generally casting my net far and wide. Realising also rebuilding is hard and the temptation to chase the quickest route to easy money is very real.
- I am enjoying spending more and more time in Chennai. It’s vibrant in a way that Bangalore isn’t, plus the food and music is way better.
- Chennai also is giving me an opportunity to take out my new Fuji X-T5 a lot more. I am greatly enjoying the combination of the X-T5 and the tiny 7-Artisans 35mm f/2 lens.
- I’ve more or less defaulted to listening to Radio Paradise all the time. Their music curation is superb and speaks to me 99% of the time. When I am a particular mood, I switch to a few old playlists on Apple Music.
- Still digesting The Essential Writings of B.R Ambedkar by Valerian Rodrigues. I am doing something different with this read — taking copious notes on the side. I want to engage with the ideas in this book at a much deeper level, so the notes are coming in handy already. For those interested, I am using Bear to do this.
