i believe these two points are really very important and truly i still haven't been able to find that problem which satisfies these two points.

i am still thinking about it. i am still yet to find that one problem that keeps me awake for the next five years but hopefully one day i will find one.

[Rohit Purkait @codeswithroh]

while looking back at my founder journey

i was confused as to why founders like @marclou is making successful bootstrapped businesses

while i am building a lot of products but am not able to reach the scale i expected

then while listening to @raroque and @SahajGarg6

i came across these two points that are important:

> do you really care about the problem?
> would you be happy working on that problem for five years or 10 years?

this made me think that whatever i am building until now is because i thought it would be cool

or people on the internet would like it

but never really thought deep enough to actually find a problem which i would be happy and motivated to solve even if it takes 5 or 10 years

and this is what makes the difference between them and me

so, the main thing i am taking away from this is that i need to think more and deep enough to actually find a problem that i will keep on working to solve

but at the same time will keep building things for fun as well

[Rohit Purkait @codeswithroh]

@Chillin9iz @PatrickAlphaC haha absolutely

and most people often forget that essential part

[Rohit Purkait @codeswithroh]

never store private keys in plain .env files

@PatrickAlphaC keeps saying this for a reason

but people still do it because the safer workflow is usually clunky

so i built vaultenv

a small npm package to store secrets encrypted locally, then load them into your shell only when needed

npm install -g codeswithroh/vaultenv

@kenn_ronin @SuiNetwork lfggg my man

have been waiting for this

lets win together 🫶

[Rohit Purkait @codeswithroh]

@web3_loner24 @marclou @raroque @SahajGarg6 😊😊

[Rohit Purkait @codeswithroh]

@vicki_ranking @marclou @raroque @SahajGarg6 yes always have been a dev for the past 6 years
and love to identify myself as a founder

although yet to build something worth remembering

but one day for sure

[Rohit Purkait @codeswithroh]

@web3_loner24 @marclou @raroque @SahajGarg6 yes because i really love building

still left to find that problem that i want to solve for the next 5 years

but will be building nevertheless to make my life and others life easier and better

[Rohit Purkait @codeswithroh]

Absolutely on point.

The thing is that when we build things for fun or for others and then if there is no ups, we tend to give up on that product

But if we are building for a problem that we really love and want to solve then no matter the ups and downs, we will keep on building be it 5 or 10 years

So, its really about finding that problem which keeps you awake at night, but in a good way
