Hey everyone,
I hope you all are doing good and staying safe. It has been a very long time since I last published my newsletter. There has been a lot that has happened in my life since and around the world as well. The lockdown period has allowed me to tinker around how can I can utilize the internet to create a positive impact. COVID-19 has pushed us into an era where most of us had to adapt to a virtual environment. Classes are now online and remote. People are working from the comfort of their home. Events are taking place on Fortnite, Zoom and on various online platforms. While 2020 has been a year filled with challenges, from an optimistic perspective, it has also been a year where people were able to unleash the creativity within them. It is a year that has allowed people to reflect on themselves. And most importantly, people coming together to help other people. This summer, I have been working on various tech projects and also embarked on two new adventures and wanted to share those adventures of mine here.
My Personal Website
I have developed a personal website for myself from scratch without using any template or frameworks. The personal website is my home on the internet. I do a lot of things from writing, hacking/coding, podcast, motivational speaking and many other things in life. One can find all of my works on my personal website. The website is being hosted on GitHub pages. It will be an interactive website where one can do other things apart from viewing my works and projects.

I Am A Coconut
“I Am A Coconut” is a motivational speech that I delivered back in 2018 in Dubai. That speech ended up winning an award and in the process, created a positive impact on the people who heard it. On June 11th, 2020, I created a YouTube channel of the same name as well as a podcast. Till date, my podcast has been heard by people from 60 cities in over 15 countries around the world. My podcast is available on many podcast streaming platforms both international as well as regional. The goal of my podcast is to motivate people, sharing inspiring stories and to spread positivity and happiness. Click on the below button to get directed to the I Am A Coconut on YouTube and Anchor.
There are many other platforms where my podcast can be heard apart from Anchor. There is a lot that I intend to do with I Am A Coconut and also get involved in humanitarian and social impact projects as well.
With that said, I will be writing my newsletter more often now and will cover topics various topics including Tech, Philosophy, Economics and many more. The goal is to share my thoughts and to provide value to my readers. Till then, please stay safe and I will be back with more content.
