💌 How Paul Graham Works - Paul Graham’s simple mental model is a useful insight for us as we think about managing our present and future careers. Without the short term, there is no long term. If you don’t survive, there is nothing to salvage. However, obsessing over short term can leave you depleted. Your time could be lost with the death of a thousand cuts - tiny distractions that compound over time and leave you stressed and unprepared for the future.

đź’Ś Varya's new book to be published by Penguin Randomhouse - Her book will focus on ambition in rising India. Ambition is the difference between where are and where we wish to be. In the months ahead, she will share how her draft evolves and interesting insights that come her way.
