Tuesday introduction to Friday Reflections

I’ve been writing on LinkedIn pretty consistently now, something that started almost out of the blue during a very turbulent time in my career. I remember thinking, wow, I’m learning about all these things I never thought I’d learn. There was no book that could have prepared me for what I was going through. Maybe there was, but I only realised that in retrospect.

Somewhere along the way, I accidentally stumbled onto this weekly cadence of posting a Reflection every Friday, simply because sometime during that week, I’d have a conversation or an experience that gets me thinking about how it has shaped the way I think - either challenging what I already knew, or making me research into a new topic where I learnt something new. Either ways, there was some joy in putting the figurative pen to paper and start writing in the days where there is so much AI generated content, it was good to sit down, reflect and just let the words flow from my fingers into digital ether.

So, here’s to a new series of Friday Reflections on Substack, which I will also mirror on here. This will likely be the first and the last post I make that doesn’t fall on a Friday, which seems fitting as the first post on here.

Back to regular programming. See you this Friday.
