The GRTiQ 10: Suhail Kakar (Ep. 91)
In a recent GRTiQ podcast, Suhail Kakar shared a blend of personal insights and experiences, providing the listeners with a glimpse into the motivations and influences that have guided his professional journey.
One of the standout moments was Suhail’s mention of the book “I am Gifted, So Are You” by Adam Khoo. This book traces the story of a student from the National University of Singapore, exploring his path to success and the challenges he faced. For Suhail, the narrative is an embodiment of inspiration, perseverance, and the pursuit of one’s dreams.
Unlike many, Suhail doesn’t resonate with movies, TV shows, or music albums. His preferences are unique, with a penchant for Lofi tunes. This detachment from mainstream media is a testament to his individualistic nature.
Among the myriad pieces of advice he has received over the years, one from his father stands out. Suhail was encouraged to diversify his knowledge beyond just front-end development. Diving into backend, cloud, mobile development, and even blockchain technology transformed his trajectory, pushing him to a multifaceted realm of expertise. This advice was more than just a nudge towards professional growth; it was a catalyst for broader horizons.
When quizzed about his best life hack for productivity, Suhail’s answer was paradoxically simplistic: avoid productivity software. In an age where countless apps promise increased efficiency, Suhail believes in the power of focus, undiluted by external aids.
In reflecting on the characteristics that foster success, Suhail emphasizes the significance of continuous learning. Knowledge, in his opinion, is a dynamic entity that requires constant updating and enhancement. This mindset is reflective of the rapidly evolving technological landscape, where adaptability is a crucial trait.
The web3 space, a decentralized vision of the internet, intrigues many with its promise of innovation. For Suhail, it is the community behind web3 that sparks excitement. This communal spirit, characterized by collaboration and shared goals, encapsulates the essence of web3’s potential.
On the topic of influential Twitter figures, Suhail recommends following Nader Dabit, renowned for his role as an instructor and tutor.
Ending on a light-hearted note, the universal plight of developers resonates with Suhail. The satisfaction of writing error-free code, encapsulated in the line “I’m happiest when the [code] runs without errors”, strikes a chord with many in the tech community.
All in all, this session with Suhail Kakar was an amalgamation of personal experiences, professional insights, and the nuances that shape his journey in the tech domain. It offered listeners a rich tapestry of wisdom and relatable moments, making it an enriching experience.
