Life Update

Holy shit I had so much on my plate, I put the one thing that gives me a lot of peace aside, and that’s writing.

I have now created a system where I can constantly share these newsletters with y’all.

So, let’s begin.

Without going in too much depth,

My agency, Metro Media House, continues to grow every month. At this rate, we’re known worldwide in our industry.

I managed to crack 2 partnerships, for the agency with such big names that once I tell you all, you’ll be like “What the fuck, how did you manage to do all that?”

Journey club grew a lot. We recently did an in person dinner in Pune, about 15 people showed up. We talked for 4-5 hours straight. Good times.

I had a bad knee injury scare at the start of November, felt like this is it, several months of recovery ahead.

But I got the checkups done, it should be fine in a month. I’m already back to training, but carefully. God I miss strangling everyone in my class.

A new D2C venture with Akshat as started, the Hong Kong trip was for that only. We’ll launch soon. It’s a product you all have already seen us both use in our videos.

I’ll be moving into a new apartment finally, unfurnished currently so I’ll design the whole interior myself. Proper boy apartment look soon.

The brand stayed stagnant, as I didn’t put much effort into it.

One thing I realized, that at the core I started as a creator. I feel the best when I am doing well in this endeavor. However,

Recently, I was not putting the effort in content like I used to back in the day.

Realizing that it’s so much about systems, since I have a lot more on my plate. And creating valuable content that I was known for in the beginning.

That’s in motion.

On a personal level, I have taken up learning more. For the last year or so, I stayed away from any book or course. As I was executing purely.

Currently, sometimes it used to feel like I am the point where I’ve exhausted my knowledge and I need to improve ASAP!

Here are few things I am focusing on learning now:

1. Design

2. Moodboarding

3. Creating n8n agents

4. Building systems in the agency, for lean scaling

5. Studying the game of content

6. Building better offers

If I go deep around every topic, you will be reading this for 30 minutes. So I’ll save your time.

Among all this chaos, I recently started having thoughts about “dreaming big”. So much so, I stuck a sticky note right below my vision board.

You Have to Dream Absurdly Big

4th November, something strange happened.

A couple days before, I had a bad knee injury scare while doing jiu jitsu. Felt like it’s an injury that would get me out for a while. Some instances, it felt like my knee will slide outside.

Fortunately, it wasn’t as bad. And I could travel.
Not dramatic. But just one of those quiet moments life throws at you when you least expect it.

I was traveling, and for the first time in a long time, I felt the scale of the world again.

Not like I didn’t travel much this year, I visited Bali and Japan. This time it was Hong Kong for business. And there was something different in the air there.
The pace of a bigger city, the noise, the lights, the movement it all reminded me of who I used to be before responsibility made everything smaller.

Somewhere along the last few years, I got so deep into building the agency, fixing problems, hiring people, documenting systems, trying to keep things stable… that I forgot something important:

I stopped dreaming big.

Not intentionally.
It just happens when you get good at being “responsible.”
When you’re the one people rely on.
When your plate is full and your head is heavy.
When you’re trying to hold everything together.

Your dreams start shrinking quietly, without any announcement.

You don’t even notice it.

Then you see something bigger than your current life… and

Suddenly you wonder why you stopped dreaming at all.

It wasn’t the trip that changed me.
It was the contrast.

For years, I used to look at certain things like travel, lifestyle upgrades, bigger teams, multiple businesses like they belonged in the “one day” folder.

A place where dreams sit quietly because you’re too busy trying to survive the present.

But recently, those “one day” things have become… normal.

Not because I’m special.
But because I stayed long enough in the game for momentum to finally show up.

And when that happened, an uncomfortable truth hit me:

Most people don’t fail because their goals are unrealistic.
They fail because their goals are too reasonable.

Reasonable goals don’t stretch you.
They don’t force you to grow.
They don’t demand anything new from you.
They just keep you right where you are, doing the same things, becoming the same person.

The version of me in early 2023 was responsible, but he wasn’t dreaming.
He was managing.
Managing stress.
Managing clients.
Managing problems.

And when you shift into “management mode” for too long, your imagination starts to rust.

You have to surround yourself with reminders, vision, ambition and frequency of your dream.

Vision boards, music, the videos you watch, the tweets you read, everything. They must instill your dreams deeper within you.

Most people tend to forget that we only get one shot at life. One.

Let me tell you again, you get one shot only. Even if you are reincarnated in the cyperpunk type of world that we’re headed towards, the dreams in this life is what matters most.

You HAVE to make the best case happen. We’re all dealt a different set of cards.

Everyone has their unfair advantages. The best part is that, there are no rules.

It’s our right to play our best hand at all times, and if you don’t you are decreasing the chance that you’ll see your dreams come to life, with this one shot that you’ve got.

You have to do hard things that change your base level. Here are some I did recently:

1. Travelling to Japan, and not looking at my bank statement while spending. I knew that even if I spend an extra couple lakhs, it wont matter in the grand scheme.

2. Booking a 5 star stay in Hong Kong for 3 days. Definitely too expensive since we were in one of the most posh areas there.

3. Spending a lakh randomly to upgrade to business class both ways, just so we can get sleep and be fresh the next day.

And much more.

If these things are not experienced, you’ll always put them on a pedestal. Like you don’t deserve any of it.

Sometimes you have to say, “Fuck it!”. And do the thing.

You won’t go from nothing to your dream at once.

You live through steps one by one, whether you know it or not.

That is how I ticked off half of my vision board this year, without even noticing. Since I look at it every single day, it became internal.

But there’s a big issue we all have to deal with still…

Self-doubt is quieter than fear, but it kills bigger dreams faster.

That’s what I realised.

My biggest fear wasn’t losing money, firing someone, scaling too fast, or the chaos of building multiple things at once.
My biggest fear was simpler:

Am I capable of dreaming that big?

And I know a lot of you feel this too.

You’re not scared of the dream.
You’re scared of whether you can carry it.

But here’s the turning point, when the agency 5×ed in the last six months, something clicked inside me in a way I can’t fully describe.

Suddenly, the targets I used to consider “ambitious” felt small, like they belonged to a past version of me who didn’t know what was possible yet.

It made me rethink everything I had been holding back simply because it felt too large to say out loud.

It made me realise something most people never get to see up close:

And the pursuit rewires you.

This season of my life feels like the beginning of Act III.

First it was me taking on the online career. Second it was my brand and me starting Metro Media House.

With the agency running smoother, new partnerships in motion, a D2C brand being born, a new apartment coming together, and a rhythm where I’m out of the agency two days a week to build, think, and create; it feels like I’m finally stepping into the version of me that stopped dreaming for a while.

Not because life got harder.
But because life got noisy.

And if you’ve followed me since 2023, you know the last couple of years weren’t pretty. I constantly shared my thoughts and updates showing that things weren’t as good as they looked (that’s the whole job of creators, isn’t it?).

There were moments where giving up looked easier than figuring out the next move.
But here’s the part people don’t talk about:

Things get better if you don’t leave.

If you stay long enough, keep moving long enough, keep taking the punch and learning the pattern long enough, life eventually lets you through.

You ask God, the universe for something. If it’s pure, you’ll be put into situations where the end outcome is the person that deserves to get what you want right now.

And when it does, you realize the only thing that was ever holding you back was the smallness of your own vision.

Funny how it all works.

So here’s what I want to tell you,

As somebody who has probably lived through your current situations,

Dream absurdly big.
Not because it’s motivational.
Not because it sounds good in a newsletter.
But because big dreams force you to grow into someone you can respect.

They make you raise your standards.
They make you stop tolerating the nonsense you used to accept.
They make you uncomfortable in the best possible way.
They make you move differently.
They make you think bigger.
They make you expand your identity instead of shrinking your potential.

And the funniest part?

The moment you start taking action toward those dreams, even small ones, they stop feeling “absurd.”

They start feeling like the next obvious step.

Just like that moment on my trip when I realised I wasn’t dreaming big enough anymore.

I used to constantly tell Akshat while looking at a gigantic building, “Bro, somebody owns this shit!”, and just smile. Imagining myself in that scenario.

Dreams don’t need to be realistic.
They need to be loud enough to drown out your doubt and big enough to pull you forward.

So if you needed a sign to raise the bar again,
to imagine a life that scares you a little,
to walk toward something bigger than your current identity,

This is it.

Dream bigger.
Absurdly bigger.
Because the world is too huge, too wild, and too full of possibility
to waste your life thinking small.

Because fuck it, we only have one shot at this.
