Vishal’s Newsletter- Edition 2

Remote Work, Consistency, & Creator Economy

Hello friend!

I went to the office after more than 2 years (I had started remote work back in 2019!).

It is a huge shift with repercussions on my daily routine and energy levels. Setting up a house in a new city, commuting, interacting with real people- everything feels exhausting for now.

More than that, it is the extra mind space I miss which I used to have while working remotely.

That is particularly important because writing still takes a major chunk of my day. The mind space is valuable to come up with ideas and accelerate the writing process. I find it tough to have that space when you are constantly surrounded by people.

While hopefully, I will adapt soon, this brings me to what I have been reading this week.

On Consistency from Wait But Why- Shared by Dickie Bush​

Not just in writing but in any creative endeavor, the power of consistency still holds to carve an identity from habit.

Time and again, I have often grossly underestimated the power of small, consistent actions.

I had almost made up my mind to not send this newsletter today because I thought I won’t have time after work. But then revisited the above quote last night and here I am at 7 am in the morning trying to finish this up before work so it can go on time!!

I believe some public commitment also leads to consistency!

Thanks to you who have kindly subscribed and agreed to become a part of my journey! 🙂

Hope you are having a fantastic week!
