Learning in Iotas

Day 12

Another busy day but I have to repeat it myself – I have to cut off those commitment I have with ideas that I do not buy in. They are nice people but I have to stop entertaining others and take back some of my time.

At the moment, there are several ideas floating around

  1. IT Infra – I would let them know that I am not interested in joining and I am happy to help when they got the data and I can help them to clean up them. Afterwards for setting up for training and evaluation, I am afraid I couldnt help as I need to take my own time back. (That should be pretty simple and I should be able to close that within 2 hours really)
  2. AI Workflow agent – I think it is not getting anywhere, the cofounder is very nice and he has a lot of passion in what he is building but I really tried to learn and get passionate about. I simply just dont really like the idea. I have to cut this out.
  3. ZKP – I think this maybe the idea I do wanna go after and spend some dedicated time on it. I believe I would be sleeping on this for a week to two
  4. Mosiac – I think this is what I really like to do and I may pitch this in the EF round if possible. I think I would own up that idea and try it
  5. Mental health App – this is what I want to do but I have to say (caveat: maybe I just need a bit more focus time on this): “this is a hard business case”. B2C is never easy , education is hard to get addictive or viral and lastly, mental health is like a topic that no one really cares to speak up a lot.

So my order of exploration should be ZKP > Mental health > mosiac for the next few weeks.

I really hope I can get someone to work together with me but it isnt easy. I start feeling that I dont care. Why I always care/ over care so much. I should just live with a bit more selfishness and think about myself.

I went to meet the IT infra guy today and he is very helpful and he tried to persuade me to join him but I just do not click with his work. His company would be successful without doubt but I just dont see myself in his business unfortunately.

Then I met someone remotely who is a friend of my excolleague. He working on building a LLM model that can predict the future. It sounds crazy but that is not impossible. He want to build such model to predict the market based on global events and it is very intersting to be honest. But again, I would need to have my head focus first for now. And focus wins the game eventually.

Tomorrow I would be meeting the AI assistance founder and I would be working with him for the afternoon and then meeting a friend for dinner. I would let him know that I would need to take a break from this work as I do not feel much conviction on that unfortunately.

I need to learn to cut loss and say no with great determination.
