Ansh's way of podcasting is so user friendly!! Like him revisiting the crucial points and pointing out the action to be taken... I have not seen anyone do that!! I feel all leaning systems in the country should be inspired from good things like this (it's here for free!!!)

Hi Ansh Thanks a lot for this video. It was super awesome, and it made me realize that it's possible to achieve anything. It's just a game of mindset and right information from right resources. I would like to tell that, if possible, then please make video on topics like 'Perceived Value', 'Conviction', 'Mindset' and explain it in-depth. These words looks simple but it holds a lot if learned and implemented in life. Waiting for it!!

[@harshjeetrai]

It's been a month i started watching your videos on Ai and UX. I started learning learning UX design by watching your videos. I was doing a digital marketing course for which i paid 50k just to know that i don't want to pursue that career. Digital marketing is super boring and depressing for me. Design always fascinated me but i did not know what i would do with it. This video is very motivation for me and pushed me to work smartly and be consistent. Thank you for all your videos. I want to ask a really important question - Is there any alternative to Figma office hours playlist because it's sound quality is not good + i am not able to focus on those video. Please reply to this comment. Thanks for everything.

No hate but I think it’s 60% real and 40% fake in his conversation, don’t keep unrealistic expectations after hearing this one just keep hustling and working on skills will be way better it takes time

I have some questions : 1.) How to get my first client from freelancing sites? 2.) In freelancing, Bahut log fraud bhi hote hain , hum unka work kr ke de bhi dete hain, but then they don't give our money...or paise ke liye ab aise Krna ki like , paise dedo hamre wo for people like me difficult hota hai, so how to get genuine freelancing clients? 3.) How to negotiate on rates? 4.) Very important which a beginner like me don't know is, how to work for clients , I mean pehle discuss krte hain on designs, then phir one try to understand ki what the client want , phir what we do , I mean we show simple wireframes? Some samples? Or the proper ui ? And how to get payments.... Please consider these questions and make a detailed video on the whole work process.

[@akankshaaggarwal4354]

Hey Ansh, would you mind if I ask what subscription management app you use? Because of the rising use of subscription based contents/ platforms/ even in retail stores.... I think it's gonna become a culture of using a subscription management app or something to maintain your subscription credit score 🤑 (a cred for your virtual transactions) it would be really helpful if you share- ❓ 1. If you use a subscription management app? ❓ 2. If yes, then which one?
