@terrence_kelleman a must read
I am fascinated by the power of design to change lives. I started Parallel, one of India’s first few product design studios, in 2014, possibly. Today, we have helped over 100 companies build better products, impacting over a billion lives (https://www.parallelhq.com/proje...)
Every day I look at the impact I've been able to make in these 10 years and it keeps motivated to keep going 🙂
@demetre_mildiani1 It sure does!
@robin_dhanwani2 That's awesome Robin, creating something like Parallel must have been quite a journey for you! The journey itself can end up fuelling you! thanks for sharing

@demetre_mildiani1 I don't define anyone, just ordinary people like me.
WE are PEOPLE, not machines..., we do not need lubricating grease, money... What generates energy to create is correlated with the human-motor and the civilization. Noone is able to create rich things in a poor world full of misery.
Our fuel is the recognizing. To create avoiding a cynical work: our products must be relevant in the society where we live, and their people must grant the best of them.
@juan_manuel_dato Thank you for Sharing Juan, I agree the products we make must be relevant otherwise it is impossible to succeed
What fuels me? Well, I'm driven by a potent mix of passion for innovation, curiosity akin to a cat in a room full of laser pointers, and a sprinkle of caffeine for good measure. How about you?
I am fueled by the sense of feeling alive doing the challenging things, improving and getting closer and closer towards becoming an Investor and a general sage in my field. makes all the pain and faliures worth it!
Freedom! And as cheesy as it sounds, helping others.
@dan_o_malley Amen to Freedom! Let's help eachother Achieve Freedom then.
I work at Parallel, a Product Design Studio whose mission is to solve important problems by building better products for the future.
Watching the impact it has created in recent times gives me gratification for the work that I do.
@muzammil_22 Very glad to hear that your work is gratifying, you must Know Robbin if you work at Parallel haha. seems like a nice guy
I'm fueled by the desire to create impactful solutions that make a difference in people's lives. My motivation stems from the passion to innovate and push boundaries in technology. Excited to hear others' perspectives and reasons for being in the tech industry!
@chris_prosopo That's Great Chris, I love the Passion, hopefully we can help eachother on the journey
Great question. Ultimately - I am here to BE OF SERVICE.
@jade_grimwood Is that what Fules you?
@demetre_mildiani1 Absolutely. It is my purpose - and I'm fueled by my purpose.
My highest motivation is actually FUTURE - so I'm most motivated by thinking about, planning for and engaging in work that heads to a future orientation! (This is our Marlee product that informs this!)
