Hi friends.
This page is a quick note to share why my Instagram page exists and what’s the goal with it.
On 8th May 2024, after finishing my engineering, I came back to Bangalore.
This time, there was nothing I was ‘supposed’ to do here, but I came to stay. My work was remote, but close friends were here and I wanted to see what is possible.
To my surprise, I discovered and learnt a few concepts that I never thought I’d know.
To my surprise, for the first time in 6 years, I was truly happy, it was almost like I was high, like I’d flipped a switch and not a temporary one. At the time of writing this, it’s been 39 days here, and I’ve had 95% great freaking days and only maybe 5% of kinda meh days.
I realised that there is no future I’m waiting for, that there’s nothing I’ll achieve that will finally make me happy, there’s nothing I could chase that would do that.
I realised, truly, how happiness is a choice and one within my grasp. I also realised that I might just die someday, that tomorrow, could truly be my last.
And if that’s the case, then I can’t hold back building my dreams. And if that’s the case, I can’t keep living a life not authentic to me.
So I started doing that. I started going after all the crazy dreams I’ve had as a kid.
This page is one of them.
Growing up in the era of the first big youtube boom, I’ve watched so many people make stupid videos on the internet, and I wondered how amazing it is that this generation gets this unique opportunity to put ourselves out there.
Not just stupid videos, I’ve personally been inspired by people living thousands of miles away. I’ve seen them walk the talk, I’ve seen them pick up something they believe in and become the biggest light in the world for it.
A light so bright that it lit something in me.
Big shoutout to ‘Yes theory’ for this one.
Knowing that, it’s always been a crazy idea, a dream to do something similar.
To make stupid videos, to make videos that show, don’t tell, everything that I stand for.
Videos that document my life, and maybe, just maybe inspire other people like me to believe in their craziest ideas.
I’m not making these for masses. I might someday optimize them for them, but I’m not making them for masses. I’m making these videos for my friends. These are videos that a Naman, exploring and learning about the world would like to send in his friend group - which just happens to now be Instagram.
It’s to show you that if I can do it, and I’m not a special snowflake, then maybe you can do this too. I know you can, I believe in you!
What do I want to say through all of them, just a few things:
-
Happiness is within your reach.
-
The life you dreamt of can happen today.
-
The kid you was always right, always more connected, always happier and grounded. Listen to that person.
-
Don’t be afraid to pursue your craziest ideas, limitations are just perceptions, fear is just a story in your head.
-
Everything infact is just a story in your head. When you start seeing the world differently, the world changes.
And last but not the least, All we all really need, is a little more love.
So, I’m gonna become the biggest, loudest, strongest voice for love, for hope, for positivity in the world.
I know I’m gonna make it. It’s gonna happen.
Not because I have something special, but because I realise that I’m already there. I started, it counts, it’s gonna build up somewhere.
In my head, I’m already successful, everything else is extra, it’s for me to give back and serve everyone, and that’s what I will strive and be blessed to do every day.
If my videos have helped, I’m glad, please text me and let me know the specifics, how did they help, what could be better, and if there’s anything I could help you with.
If they’ve been irritating trash on the feed, feel free to unfollow. Maybe today, you’re not meant to be here. And I still love you tons for that.
Save yourself the mental peace, and click unfollow.
Thanks for being here fam, this is just the start.
Love you pro max always. crazy nmn
