It has been a very long time since I have written in here. The first reason is that my personal life had some ups and downs. Obviously personal so I won’t go into detail. The second reason is that I am still not very good at writing posts. I haven’t yet found my voice, and I am not sure who my target audience is. It has been a little tempting to throw in the towel, and become another person whose blog fizzled out.
Just because I have failed at my goal of writing regularly this year is no reason to quit though. As long as blogging still has a positive expected value then I should keep going. If I still think the work is going to lead to worthwhile results, then I should move forward. I know that this blog is helping me push myself as a communicator and as an engineer.
I am writing this post tonight to pick myself up, dust myself off, and try again. If at first you don’t succeed, just make a rev change and try again. 😉
