This substack is an excuse to force-feed my interests down your throat, but you'll love it.

I designed futureproof with an elaborate plan of curating a knowledge-base for sharing ideas around structured and moonshot thinking but at the moment this substack identifies as a dump where I write about the things I'm thinking about at the time of publishing. I am excited to invite you to join me on this journey and find out where it takes us.

I'm going through a lot of interesting changes right now, so I'm also playing around with the idea of integrating some of my life experiences and real-world scenarios. If you leave a comment, I'll know you're interested in seeing more of this.

Hybrid format.

The core focus stays the same - Sharing fragments of information I think might be useful in attainable a desirable future state. [Whatever that means to you]

I don't know what I'm doing with half the time, but occasionally, I get an epiphanic understanding on how a particular thing works and I obsess over it for weeks or months. Somewhere in the middle of that extended thought-stream is when I would typically publish a new article.

The format is also taking a new approach. I analysed some feedback and realised most of my readers don't care much for the preachy, overly technical stuff, so I'm going in a new direction. I call it the Hybrid approach and it's a coagulation of different writing styles - Essay + Teardown + Musings. I'm also very open to experimenting with more methods as I improve my writing.

You get it, when you get it

If you're subscribed, You will receive a useful newsletter at least once a month. You may receive 6 or 11, but I'm making no promises here. What time of the month, you ask? You will get it, when you get it.

Will futureproof change again?

Yes. very likely. but not anytime soon. My sense is that futureproof is a constantly morphing experiment to deliver valuable information. The goal will not change, but as I grow and understand new ways to achieve it, the methods will grow and change accordingly. It is ideal.

I really need your help

At the time of writing this, we are at 122 subscribers. I have no shame and I'm incredibly grateful to every one of you. We need more subscribers though. 

In the coming months, I will generate some ideas for incentives. The goal is to grow this publication with an addition of 878 more by the end of the year. If you are not entirely opposed to my progress in life, and you find this content valuable, please spread the word by sharing and getting people in your communities to subscribe.

Let's do this.
