Hi, I'm Nazeer Rasul.
I write about building things: companies, systems, and myself, while I'm still figuring it out. Notes from the process, not conclusions.
Why I write
I write to think clearly, and to keep a record for whoever I am a year from now, including the parts I'll probably want to revise.
Most of what I actually know, I learned by building: companies, processes, habits, and getting it wrong a few times before getting it less wrong. This is where I put that down in writing. What I'm building. What's working. What isn't. What I'm still working out.
Build the thing. Then build yourself while you build it.
Nothing here is a finished philosophy. It's a running log.
What I write about
Two things, written about properly.
Systems & Operations
How I think about building processes that don't depend on me being in the room.
Building Businesses
Lessons from starting, running, and occasionally breaking things, in real time.
