Motivation

What really motivated me to start this blog was an article by Steve on Reducing TV Watching. I had been thinking about it for quite long but was not just able to execute it. Finally when I read the article I was determined to divert my TV time into something constructive.

I thought a lot about what I should do. In the past I had started a couple of projects and hobbies which faced premature death. The reason I figured out was that I was trying to do something just for the sake of keeping my self away from TV. Wrong strategy. I sat down and tried to figure out what is it that I think about and/or do nearly on daily basis; what is it that I really feel strongly for.

I realized that I enjoy helping prospective/fellow students decide their career paths in my capacity. Also, I read a lot about personal enrichment and growth, be it in learning or teaching. So I thought why not put my thoughts into words and make them open to public to read. May be someone else will also benefit. But believe me, writing is the most difficult part I have to deal with. I can hardly think when I write and write when I think. Trying to do them simultaneously is a training in itself for me.

But most importantly, I think I just want to connect with others who can bring a different perspective to what I write about. I want to learn from your experiences and share mine. I have benefited a lot from reading websites by some great writers(which I’ll list later). I don’t consider myself of that caliber but I definitely want to put my 2 cents here with a hope that it might make positive difference in someone’s life even if minimal.
