My Whole Life Runs on Experiments

Experiments make life fun and I do it daily

The cool thing about your life is that you can do whatever you want to do and nobody even care, unless it raises some major issues — political, social, global, etc. Solitary isn’t always bad, this seems.

My whole life has been running on experimenting and I didn’t realize it until recently.

I could do it because I wanted to embrace failure, even though I have been insecure my whole life. It becomes easier when you have got nothing to lose.

Here are some crazy things I have done, why I have done them, and what I have learned from them.

I Work for Free to Experiment

I gave away 1.9 years of my life, wasted 19 hours of our founder, killed 19 other dreams of mine to learn 19 lessons about startup culture while working for free.

While doing that, most of the time I had to ignore my studies, my friends, my health, my siblings, my personal time, my toilet seat— everything, to spend time for my work.

I wanted to see my worth in a start-up, with zero skills, aged 15 (right when I joined the startup), who was bad with communication, very insecure about everything, got offended very easily, and was a bad human being.
