Getting started

· 220 words · 2 minute read

At the time of writing, the content of this blog is not yet fully defined. It will likely be skewed toward technology, leadership, and the intersection of those because they are frequently on my mind. I will strive for a less is more approach, with short and crisp posts.

While the content of the blog remains to be seen, I have a set of reasons why I want to try it out:

  • Getting into the flow. I enjoy writing, thus having a blog is a venue for me to achieve flow.
  • Clearer thinking. Writing is my preferred way to clarify my thoughts and reasoning. The process of formalizing ideas into text always leads to new learnings and a discovery of its own.
  • Personal development. Sharing imperfect blog posts with the world is effective cognitive behavioral therapy for a perfectionist like me.
  • Personal principle. I believe we are all better off by being generous. Be that with time, love, money, anything. Or in this case, thoughts.
  • Building routines. Since I enjoy writing and believe it is beneficial for all the reasons mentioned above, I would like to establish a routine for it. Blog posts are easy to track and set goals around, making them a good candidate for habit creation.

Writing is a journey, let us see where this one leads.
