effort + powerlaw = certainty

Elaborate later

Per hour rate today, as advised by kunal shah - I will keep updating it every month.... I think it will be a fun exercise :)

Rs 2000/ hour

I think this will help me make decisions in the future. I will most likely not care about small expense.

Real life example - before I knew this number, I recently shifted to a new place in gurgoan due to work.

I had to purchase a gas stove for cooking. I spent around 1 hour doing research about the best stove I could get at the best price. I ended up purchasing a stove for Rs 1700 which whas 500 lower than the non-researched, decent option available on amazon. I was happy that I saved 500 in that purchase, but if I knew this number back then I would have not done that.

Price per hour for my time - Rs 2000

Price of the researched stove - Rs 1700

Price of the non-researched decent stove - 2200

apparent saving in the purchase 2200 - 1700 = 500 ( not the correct number)

final calculation with time value deduction = 2200 - 1700 - 2000 = - 1500

So, even though in cash terms it was a positive transaction - but in actual terms, it was a hugely negative transaction.

Take it into consideration Ujjwal

Powerlaw is an operator and investors in Amazon space

 If we do our job properly, the job that we have chosen to do right now, then someone will gain financial freedom in 3 years.

They might not have to ever work again because we will have made them so much money by then.

The fun that I personally derive out of this experience is beyond words.

I had an early life crush on this question - How to get things done?

Overtime, it evolved into a beautiful answer that had impacted me deeply. The answers changed me completely 

I want to create an organisation that can operation with certainty and can produce standard outcomes for our customers.

powerlaw create certainty

The most important thing right now - Sales

 Any company has to solve three problems to remain in business

1. What is your aha( product-market fit) moment  -
1.  we make them money and only then do they pay us
2. How to get customers to your door ? - Sales - Aha, as soon (working)
1. Seller services aha moment - make them profitable
3. Retention -Aha, as often -
1.  we have our systems and it is largely sorted for powerlaw.in

This simply translates to me doing sales personally and then building a team that will do sales independent of me.

While I will be doing sales aggressively, I will have the process in the back of my mind. I do know that eventually all this will be done by someone else and I am just a catalyst to achieve goals and,  create models for others to follow and achieve goals.

It is not unlike the early days of the retention design process - every now and then, I would stop to think over the design and formalize it for others to follow.

This is the greatest gift of being a threshold 0 person. 

You can look into the darkness of the tunnel and create systems for others to come out of the dark tunnel using your system.

I love what I do now

 I am 18000 happy customers away from being a billionaire.

I just need to learn how to create a system that will keep our current customers happy and keep adding more customers on a weekly basis.

at least, it is quantifiable now.

It is no longer a dream.... i just need to traverse this path with my awesome team for 18000 times and we will become what we dreamt of.

The most important thing in doing all this is that I will learn to be an operator... I will finally learn the "how" of doing things.

Doers rule the world, learn by doing
