Looking back at the various posts that I have written so far, I've understood a few things about my self today.
This is my third attempt at blogging - the other two were under a cyber pseudonym and can be seen here and here. This attempt is the one that I have really been enjoying the most.
So the question is : Why - Despite the fact that I am writing on a slightly technical subject, which has few readers and that my posts are mostly anecdotal in nature (not scientific, validated, commented upon or even approved) - I have been posting because I think I definitely enjoy explaining how things work to people. While this disseminates information, it also challenges me in my communication skills, and refreshes my knowledge base.
Should I become a teacher then ? YES - I need to firm my drive to acquire a PhD and then see how it goes. Will I be a good teacher ? No idea - but since giving gyan is something that I enjoy, maybe it won't turn out to be so bad. My aspirational ideal - Eliyahu Goldratt of The Goal (the book, not the movie!)
Now, since I have been able to put in some amount of discipline, I feel I should enhance the scope of this blog and make it more FMCG centric. That will take some amount of time, and huge amounts of effort, but it seems to be the only logical way to take things forward.
And now that I have started to find passion in this, I will definitely revive my earlier FMCG adventures blog - though I'll still post under the pseudonym !
So, now I get back to some office work, and will post again tomorrow.
