The philosophy of this blog

A few self-imposed rules for this blog:

• Curiosity is the main motivation. I write about things I’m trying to figure out, not things I already understand.
• I write to learn how to write. Not the other way around. Bad first drafts are the point.
• Sharing knowledge from personal experience. It reinforces my own understanding and invites useful pushback from people who know more than I do.
• Publishing things that aren’t polished. Comfort with vulnerability is a muscle you build by reps, not by reading.
• Knowledge above all. If a post helps me think more clearly about a topic, the post worked, even if it has zero readers.

Enjoyment is the fuel of the work. If it stops being fun I stop writing. So far it’s been fun.

The blog explores whatever I’m thinking about — existence, well-being, professional life, hobbies. No theme, no schedule, no consistency.
