Heya!
It’s almost midnight and my eyelids are heavier than usual.
But I wanted to type out a quick email about something important that just happened:
I just wrote about one of the most popular frameworks in gamification by one of the OGs.
But… I was beating myself up for writing it.
Why?
Because it was not mine.
Because it was not original.
Because I felt I was stealing something.
Yeah.
I was being an idiot.
Don’t be like me. (In this regard!)
Look… it’s simple, alright?
Your job is to add value.
Whatever you do – you gotta add value.
If you don’t do that, you fail.
If not, go for it.
Give the proper credits and stuff, but go ahead.
The world is massive and there are a ton of people who’ve never heard of what you’re talking about.
You got this.
Have a great weekend.
I’m off to bed.
Night.
With love from Bengaluru, this is Arvindh saying over and out.
