My goal in life: visit all 195 countries in the world before I die. But after going to 100+ cities in the last 8 years, 1 place has BLOWN all the others out of the water. Here’s why this city is perfect for high-value founders who want to build their empires:

I’ve always had imposter syndrome, but jumping from comfortable career to entrepreneurship made it 10x worse. My Book of Wins saved me: While I was a PM at Amazon, I started writing down 3 wins per week in a notebook. Every month, I re-read them. Reading cold, hard data about my own victories helps me put my self doubt to rest. Without these wins, I wouldn’t have had the courage to bet on myself. Looking back over the last year of building @themidorico, I’m glad I did.

December was my last month at @_buildspace I couldn't be more grateful to the team and our community for an adventure of a lifetime. ❤️💙💛💚 buildspace in my opinion is the most innovative education product in the world. I've never seen a program and community that measurably increases motivation, resolve and excitement around pursuing one's own ideas like buildspace does. Let alone for 10,000s of people concurrently from over 100+ countries... on the internet!! I met some of the most promising builders, hackers, founders, artists and musicians starting their path to greatness. I can't wait to see where they'll be in a year, many are already taking off. I'm beyond excited to see all the new dreams the team brings to life and will continue to be buildspace's number 1 fan!! I was planning on taking a sabbatical.. but feels like it's a good time to get back in the arena. More on that soon. So today, I'm going to listen to some Porter Robinson, and ship an app to @_nightsweekends s5. Who knows.. maybe it'll help me get started on my next big idea. See y'all so very soon!

Farhaj is a high trust, high competence leader in the region. If you’re looking to establish business presence in the UAE, this is worth checking out. If you’re in the superteam network, @SuperteamAE can put you in touch.
Introducing @letsharbour, finally lol We help you setup a business in Dubai in a few clicks. I get 5-10 DM's from people asking me how to move to the UAE every day. They try to setup a company, but agencies charge 1000s of dollars in random fees. So we met with & vetted 35+ freezones, and partnered with only 3 of them because they met our standards. We also met with banks, insurance companies and even short term rental co's to curate recommendations to help you settle in. Helping just 10 people this month. Drop a comment if you'd like to try it :)
