PM AND A HALF

PM and a half lifestyle

· Himanshu Gupta

Product management is not just a role at work — it extends to every life area. I apply product thinking day-to-day to become a better version of myself.

Vision — leave this planet a better place than I found it, by unlocking human potential.

Strategy — I can only achieve that vision by unlocking my own potential first: 1% better every day.

Roadmap — my 10-year goal (2021–30) is freedom of money, time and location.

MVP mindset — be scrappy, move fast on personal projects, fail a lot, never stop trying.

People centricity — I started treating my wife as a customer: proactively understanding her needs and solving them. Two birds, one stone — a happier home and a sharper product skill.

Prioritisation — family needs above personal needs, because if my family is unhappy, I’m unhappy — and then I can’t do my duty well.

Feedback — I learn from everyone, regardless of age, gender or qualification. There is so much to know; we’ve barely scratched the surface.

The ‘PM AND A HALF’ lifestyle is a philosophy that shapes a purpose-driven, fulfilling life — guided by the principles of product management and a commitment to constant growth.
