New Challenges Everyday

A while ago, I came across a post from Jay Yang.

With every new step comes new challenges.

Two years ago, I questioned everything. If AI takes off, will I still have a place as a writer? Then I realized that writing is about how you think first, then how you write. (At least until AI starts thinking for me, too.)

Lately, I’ve been learning how to drive. Took it to the gym a few times. Went on a drive with friends. I enjoy it more than I expected. But there’s still a long way to go before I can call myself good at it. Still learning. Always learning.

I still don’t know how to swim.

Every time I get an opportunity to build something, I take it—without knowing how I’ll do it. Barely having a clue where to start.

The fun is in figuring things out. Creating something for the first time, realizing it’s terrible, and then making it better.

Isn’t that what I asked for?

I asked for growth. And I get opportunities that force me to think beyond what I know.

The question isn’t whether AI will make me replaceable. The real game is learning how it works, how I can integrate it into my work and life, and how to use it to my advantage.

Sometimes, I wonder if I’m stretching too far, being too ambitious. But these challenges are what make life interesting. They push me to become a better driver, thinker, and writer.

Well, I am also turning 23 in a month, and that has been stressful lol.

I’ll end it here.

But the next time you don’t know where to start, try this:

1. Find the closest example – Someone has already done it. Study them. Reverse-engineer.

2. Start ugly – The first version will suck. Do it anyway.

3. Test and adapt – Get feedback. Refine. Rebuild.

4. Keep going – The only way to get good is to do it over and over.

Most people overthink the first step.

But action beats analysis.

Figure it out as you go.

See ya next week.
