Introduction: Why I Started This Blog
Hello, I’m Harsh
Welcome to my corner of the internet! I’m Harsh Gujarathi, and I’m excited to start sharing my thoughts, experiences, and journey with you through this blog.
Who Am I?
I’m a passionate technologist with interests spanning across software development, innovation, and continuous learning. By day, I work in the tech industry, tackling challenges and building solutions. But there’s much more to me than just my professional identity - I’m also an avid learner, an occasional traveler, and someone who finds joy in the small details of everyday life.
Why I Started This Blog
For the longest time, I’ve consumed content - articles, blogs, videos, podcasts - absorbing insights and perspectives from others. But I realized there’s something powerful about shifting from consumption to creation. This blog represents that shift for me, and here’s why I decided to start writing:
A Place for Self-Expression
Our thoughts gain clarity when we articulate them. This blog provides me a canvas to express ideas that might otherwise remain half-formed in my mind. By writing them down, I can examine my own thinking, challenge my assumptions, and develop more nuanced perspectives.
Improving My Writing Skills
Clear writing reflects clear thinking. By committing to regular writing, I’m also committing to improving how I communicate. Writing is a skill that improves with practice, and this blog gives me the perfect opportunity to hone this craft. Each post is a chance to become more articulate, concise, and engaging.
Building a Digital Garden
Rather than seeing this as a traditional blog with the pressure of polished, perfect posts, I’m approaching this as a digital garden - a place where ideas can grow and evolve over time. Some posts might be well-developed essays, while others might be seedlings of thoughts that I’ll revisit and expand later.
Connecting with Others
While writing is often a solitary activity, publishing creates the possibility of connection. I hope that sharing my experiences and insights might resonate with others, spark conversations, or provide different perspectives.
What to Expect
In the coming posts, I’ll be writing about technology, personal development, books I’m reading, projects I’m working on, and lessons I’m learning along the way. The content will be varied because my interests are varied, but authenticity will be the common thread.
I don’t claim to be an expert; I’m simply someone who’s curious about many things and committed to learning in public. If that resonates with you, I invite you to join me on this journey.
Here’s to the start of something meaningful!
