The Ambition Trap: Why Dreaming Big Can Keep You Stuck ​For years, I've fallen into what I now call "The Ambition Trap." ​I dream huge, ultra-big goals – the kind that light up my brain with dopamine hits just thinking about them. The problem? My qualifications and current skills feel miles away from those lofty ambitions. ​And because the first steps feel so small, so insignificant compared to the summit, I convince myself they're not worth starting. ​The result? Zero progress. Stuck at the same place, fueled by ambition but paralyzed by its scale. ​It's a realization that hit me hard: You can't jump to the finish line, no matter how clearly you see it. ​The only way out? START FING SMALL.* ​It's not about lowering the bar for your dreams; it's about making the entry point achievable. Break down that mountain into a single, tiny pebble you can pick up today. Learn one new word, write one line of code, send one email, read one page. ​That "insignificant" action is where momentum begins

The new middle class trap isn’t a 9 - 5 job. It’s making 25–30k a month doing delivery in bikes at night, chilling all day, and calling it “freedom.” That’s how ambition dies slowly.

Software engineering is not just about writing code one line at a time anymore. It's about finding and fixing problems.

One line from Deepak Shenoy’s Money Wise that stayed with me: The biggest risk isn’t taking no risk. It’s taking the wrong one. Returns attract attention. Risk decides outcomes. Still learning.
