My first full-stack project is finally coming together 🥹
Meet Modus: a little space where teams can plan work, share boards,and see changes happen live.
It took a lot of debugging to get here, so seeing it actually work feels pretty great. What would you add next? Watch at 0.25x

@shregupta89 Now imagine being the only intern on a team at BNY across India .That was a real heartbreak. 💔
But yeah, got back up, fought back, and I'm soon joining a startup as a 6-month intern. Still fighting, still going.
Point being, it isn't over until you say it is.
I think the strongest idea here is that metrics should remain a consequence of growth, rather than becoming its sole definition.
It preserves the hunger to achieve more without making an argument for either lowering expectations or abandoning measurable goals.
how to study and learn really difficult subjects:
1. don’t panic. hard just means dense. it’s not impossible, it’s just packed. unwrap it slowly.
2. get a map before diving in. watch an overview video, read the table of contents, or skim the wikipedia page. you need context first.
3. use multiple sources. one book will confuse you, two will clarify, three will enlighten.
4. build intuition, not memory. visualize it. simulate it. code it. teach it to a friend or a wall.
5. tolerate confusion. you’ll feel dumb 90% of the time; that’s the price of learning something that rewires your brain.
6. connect it to reality. every abstract thing has a real-world analog. find it. relate it. ground it.
7. revisit the same topic after a week. mastery is not about reading once; it’s about returning after your brain has “chewed” on it.
8. don’t romanticize genius. smart people aren’t born knowing it. they just survived longer in the confusion phase.
the truth is; learning hard stuff isn’t about intelligence.
it’s about endurance, humility, and curiosity.
you stay long enough in the fog until it clears.
