Did I just do it again? Did I start yet another blog? Again?
Yes, like many others, I have also tried writing on subjects that interest to me in the past… and failed. Okay, failed may be too harsh so let’s just say that I started with a lot of enthusiasm but could not carry it for a long time. Days, weeks or a few months at max. So why try again!!!
Well, many reasons and here are a few –
- Did not succeed in the past does not mean stop trying.
- Writing helps refine the thought process.
- Chances are that I have a better/ more audience now (see below, why).
- I continue to have the willingness to share what I learn (and learn from others).
LinkedIn posts and Medium are now great platforms for writing. On LinkedIn, when I write something, it will be read by my professional network. People who I work with, or worked in the past… People who matter to me and I care about in the professional context. And that is the most important change from earlier days. In the past, you could have written, but for whom? Getting relevant viewership was really hard. But now that problem has been resolved.
So here is to my another attempt at writing. Wish me luck for consistent and quality writing and check back often.
Have a great day !!!
