Musings from My Commute - IV


I have the ideas (I really do!) but not the time!

When I started writing (ahem...resumed), I was rather alone at home and had the freedom to write whenever and wherever I wanted. The change in circumstances was unavoidable and I knew that — this delay is just me procrastinating to find a solution, but a solution I did find!

Instead of clubbing some ideas together into a moderately sized post, I’ll write on shorter posts focusing on individual ideas. Hopefully, that would also cause the posts to be a bit less incoherent and random.

Some of you know that I post stuff on Medium too. I plan to club some short posts I write here to develop it into a more Medium-styled article to post there. That said, it’s obvious my posting frequency on Medium would be a lot lower than what it was.

Now, to get to the point of this post — I thought of this strategy on my commute, and thus it rightly gets this title. I would also like to shout-out to Headspace. If you haven’t heard of it, Google it. It’s good.

How Headspace has helped me, apart from helping me manage some stressful situations is by identifying, recognising and recording my thoughts. Someone has said that thoughts and ideas are all a waste of energy if not used. This blog is exactly a counter to that. I have a good idea, I note it with my Headspace powers, store them in my phone, come home and find the time to write it all out. Then, I post revising just once — almost raw, call it rare.

PS: I will be posting short posts every 3 days or so.
