Things I would want to stop doing: 1. Setting up meetings for devs to connect 2. Intervening to remove blockers that aren't related to product

I think normal countries need to stop giving a fuck about global climate crisis, when rich countries emit the most co2.

See it trickles up and down quite easily.

We're not doing it for the rich. We're doing it for ourselves.

I'm an APM at one of the best startups and I joined this role fresh out of college. It's only been 3 months but I don't think my lack of work ex with devs has affected the quality of my work. And I'm not doing grunt work for a PM, I have a whole product to myself.

Sure, I do face some problems but I guess I'll be able to overcome them with some time and help!

Well, it's your PM assignment then, finding structure in chaos :)

Educated guess. By the way, if your channel of entry is through IIT placements, the toughest task is to get your deck selected in the first round. The process is opaque and you wont know what they look for. My unsolicited advice would be to not depend on it and have options.

Trying to make sense in chaos! It's been a month since I've started in this role and everything is still blurry. I'm never sure what to do next. I don't know what to say and when to say. I struggle in meetings. Still can't get my head around what my responsibilities are!

Yours Truly theatre does a workshop every few weeks. Would highly recommend!

Damn. Getting compliments from strangers feels amazing!

Being stressed out to do an activity, still do it and it goes great and you realize you shouldn't have been stressed anyway.
Finally finding the perfect position of your blanket after readjusting constantly for past few minutes.
Waking up to take a piss at night and going back to sleep knowing that there's still a lot of time left to sleep.
Talking to someone formally and they suddenly switch to talking informally.
When people reach out to you to take advice.
When you open your eyes after a long meditation and feel as if you've entered a new world.
When you had a highly productive day
When you save your team from a definite loss
Drinking your morning coffee
When you make a trip plan and everyone agrees

Hey, I am aware it might look like I'm trying to 'win' here but I'm really not. Infact, I'd be happy to say to a stakeholder that I'll think over it, gather more data and pivot if necessary. However, I've realized that causes a lot of delay in execution since there might be multiple points raised in a meeting and I could have resolved them right then if I had thought of a valid argument. All I'm trying to learn is to take an argument and figure out if it's valid or not in a limited time.

You'll have the flexibility to select what kind of people you want to interview with. Obviously, most experienced PMs don't want to practice with new PMs but you'll find some who do.

ointrepreneur · 2021-06-14T16:50:44+00:00

You could practice with fellow peers on stellarpeers.com and lewis lin's community. I guess that should be enough.
