    2. One good word of mouth can change your destiny. As we hosted Web3 Cohort, one word from Saurabh Shankar to Arjun Kalsy at Polygon opened many opportunities to serve Builders and Founders. We knew Saurabh previously and I was seeking his input to design a Web3 Cohort.

    Your competition isn't other people. Your competition is your procrastination. Your ego. The unhealthy food you're consuming, the knowledge you neglect. The negative behaviour you're nurturing & your lack of creativity. Compete against that. -- via @kabandisaikia
