The Blog-yssey Begins
I have finally caved in and started to write a blog. The days where I say If you have time to write a blog post you could have solved 2 LeetCode problems are gone. I have joined the infamous blogger crowd now.
Fingers crossed, I had shared the same enthusiasm when I joined a Gym the last few 100 times and look where that had got me 🤣.
But Why?
Why a blog in the first place? It's not like you are the smartest of the bunch around True. But learning new ideas and not documenting them was the mistake I did in the previous iterations. As sharing the same pool of brilliants whom I followed till now I understood that I inherited the same flaw they all had. Forgetfulness and not to forget the Procrastination 😃.
Whatever I learned till now is in my head somewhere, but the access to that pointers is long gone 🤣. I get a puff of the insanities I learned here and there mostly when I am on the potty, Unfortunately by the moment I come back and sit in front of the system The AHA moment would be long gone from me.
To tackle this issue, I am gonna do something nobody else has done till now. Drum rolls …….
I am gonna write a blog!!
Let me rephrase that properly I am going to write that blog as ME 😃. The fun way. I will let my alter-ego out of its box and help me write the contents interactively. If you hadn’t figured it out till now.
The struggle of identities
This is me -> Abhijith P M. Professional, Coordinated, Hardworking and Loyal.
This is me -> Pm Abi. The one with the charms, with dumb questions, half baked noodles in place of brain and 200% confidence & 0 sarcasm
So back to the question, Why o why am I starting a blog of all things? And here are my X pillars of why.
1. The Everlasting Codex
Everyone needs a dairy. Even better if it is a digital one. This blog is like a notebook, But way cooler because it is on the internet. Till now you were a fool privately, Now you can be a fool publically. Now I have something to visit and record my thoughts and edit the things which I thought were right in the future. Just like the urge we feel to kick ourselves when we find the code that we wrote 3 years ago. No more lost notes or forgotten concepts.
2. Exposure & Validation:
A collective review of our thoughts is an excellent way to improve our thought process. Or to discard it. Till now my findings and thoughts were private. I am placing it at the mercy of the world now. Just like a newbie posting to StackOverflow to get attention🤣.
3. Sparking inspiration onto Thy
If I could inspire at least a single person to become 1% better or to impart knowledge. Then Happy++. A friendly rivalry that is mutually beneficial is what society should be built upon. Kakkarot, that you?
4. Ascension to a Technical Architect
In the long run, my ambitions are tied to being a Technical Architect who can hold his own. I want this blog as my stepping stone to my studies, tackling & solving new challenges should be my forte.
5. The Top 1% Club
These days with the AI scare on the run, There is a high need to be in the elite category. Why settle for average when you can be exceptional? Aim for 1% and you would end up in the top 10%. Why don't you aim for -10%, then won't you end up at 1 percent? Hold my math.
Embrace failure as a fleeting moment, for it’s in the art of rising that we truly master the dance of success.
That quote must be from ChatGPT, He ain't that good at coming up with that. 🤔
