Summary: Week 4

Every Sunday, I collate everything I have written over the week from Monday to Saturday. If you’ve been busy and haven’t been able to read this week’s articles, I hope one or more of these articles will interest you.


My 700km motorcycle ride to save money | Monday, 20 Jan 2020

The story from my blunder years where a friend and I decide to take an ill-fated roadtrip to save money but end up spending more. Penny wise pound foolish.


“My idea is not unique enough…” | Tuesday, 21 Jan 2020

Talking about an ex-employee who wants to start something but worries about the uniqueness of his idea. I advise him about the futility of chasing uniqueness as early-stage entrepreneurs.


I upset some readers with my views on unique ideas | Wednesday, 22 Jan 2020

Unexpectedly (or expectedly), this idea backfired and received some flak. I use this article to justify explain what I really meant. I hope you understand where I am coming from.


Gamifying cold calls | Thursday, 23 Jan 2020

An homage to Steli Efti of close.com on his experiments gamifying cold calls. I use that framework as an example to give high-level ideas on gamifying daily business processes. More details coming soon.


The worst pirate you have ever heard of | Friday, 24 Jan 2020

Pirates of the Carribean is one of my all-time favorite movies. Jack Sparrow is my greatest hero. I use him as an example of how to approach entrepreneurship and life in general.


I hope you enjoyed some of these at least. Let me know which was your favorite, and which made no sense at all.

Yours,

Abhilash Purohit
