Opportunities are in abundance, irrespective of what people may choose to believe, being exposed to those opportunities is what requires some decent amount of work. Trying to make my visibility online more bright has made me realize that there is something for everyone even if we are completely unskilled.

The Access Economy has made it very much easier for people to learn faster from good quality resources not only learning iterating and experimenting with different ideas also have become so much easier that people are spending most of their time perfecting their skills and building things.

It may be shocking to hear but the number of original doubts that we have are becoming less day by day, while learning anything new it will be almost always the case that the doubts we are disturbed with have already been answered by someone else. Everyone is unique in their own respective ways and everyone has their unique doubt stack( Set of problems or difficulties they have faced while doing or learning something).

This individual doubt stack is what makes us different from others, as the ability to ask good questions have been mastered by a very few and at one point it all comes down to the difference between listening and paying attention - which a few truly people understand.

In hindsight everything I have talked about above is good and glittery but abundance has it's own difficulties and that is choosing the right problems to work on.

As the internet is progressing especially the web 3.0 it is getting difficult to say no to opportunities and things to learn to. There is an opportunity cost attached to every decision you make as time is a finite entity.

When young, you can take swings at things that are risky and can play high stakes games but as you grow the necessity of earning money kicks in and the friction increases preventing you from playing high risk games, while you may say that you can swing the bat high enough, you will be exhausted after doing that and the opportunity cost of taking that risk will start to bother you.

Everyone likes to believe they can handle multiple things at once and it is very good if you can do that but reality is very far from this fiction. Taking multiple things at once not only damages your focus but also reduces your ability to do deep work.

In reality you can properly manage at max 2 things at once taking into consideration that you want to produce quality work. This is getting longer than intended hence I will end it with the concluding this:-

I know it is difficult to select one single opportunity when there are multiple good ones hanging from the tree, no matter how much our mind convinces us that we will be able to accomplish every opportunity it is not true and while it is sad to say no to the next big jackpot you will have to do so. Regret misdirects decision, before saying yes make sure it is a hell yes or blankly say no.

Opportunities are in abundance and will always be!
