I write because it feels fun to push to parshant.com and be able to see it later and open it and share it with people easily. It acts as a leveraged asset. I can remind myself of what’s important and what I wrote before, and I can feel good about shipping something every day.
I can feel good about others thinking that I’m doing something, that there’s something valuable out there, something useful. But honestly, that’s not the real reason.
I see writing as an evolution of thinking and doing and expanding from here — where I start a self-generated arc of mastery. It goes into other domains: audio, video, images. Multi-modal. I keep using Claude Code, and I see writing as general thinking and looking into the future and predicting, which goes into creating.
If I see something that should happen in the future — if I get like a memory from the future — I can be an instrument to bring it out, because I’m seeing it first. Writing is a way of seeing. And maybe, as I keep thinking, I will come across something that I can search on the internet and bring relevant stuff in front of my mind and bring it out in the form of research.
I keep my eyes open towards that, and so it shapes my perception. I can be more aware, more targetedly aware of the world and what’s happening outside. Writing leads to actions.
And here’s the thing that changed everything: we live in a world where words are now executable. Whatever I’m writing can be turned into some other form of deeper product. Words become code. Code becomes product. The gap between thinking and building collapsed. LLMs learned the patterns of thought-to-action from the entire internet, and now a blog post is a prototype.
So I write to see. I write to predict. I write to create. And I ship it because a thought that stays in your head is just a thought. A thought that’s published is a seed.
