Monday the 16th of September 2024 and the title of today's reflection is going to be looking back. So one of the first things that I really want to talk about is the fact that yesterday I just basically spent some time for the very first time looking back at some of the reflections that I
have been publishing on my blog website. Two things happened I guess. Both of these things were feelings. So the first emotion that I felt was kind of like appreciation. I was hit with a massive wave of appreciation. And the second emotion, I was hit with a massive wave of astonishment. For many reasons and purposes I try to avoid leaning too much into my sense of pride, my sense of ego, my sense of achievement out of fear that I may perhaps become blind by
arrogance or in a way an imbalance really between confidence, between kind of like bold pride and humility. But honestly like you know considering the fact that I've been looking at myself very harshly over the past kind of like couple of days, I felt like I really needed to do this. I felt like I really needed to look back and really kind of like listen not only just read the things that I kind of like write down but then also listen to myself as I talk. Like you know, looking back at the work that I have published and looking back at the things that I have written down and just you know I am, it amazes me how like
you know listening to yourself can really, you know you can be, you can definitely become your number one fan. You can definitely be the reason as to why you keep on going. Because I just listen to myself and I'm amazed to just kind of like hear myself,
you know, telling myself things like, you know, I just kind of like need to be more grateful, or I'm effectively just basically happy about how self-aware I am. Or at least I'm happy that I'm self-aware enough to realize where I need to make room for improvement.
Like, you know, where the room for improvement is. What I need to do next. I'm simply kind of like amazed and astonished and for some reason I now kind of like want to look back through my whole kind of like diary I guess to a certain extent, and just listen back to myself and just listen to the things that I've been saying
for like the past year at this point, because I think I'm coming very close to, if I haven't done so already, a year in which I've been publishing these reflections on my blog website. So with that being said, like today,
I spent some time just really honing in and really looking at a couple of designs. It's really beginning to trigger my bug for graphic design. However, this is kind of like a necessary step for trying to establish the, not necessarily the secondary phase, but the next installment of my blog website, which effectively involves including and injecting the works of other people so that again like I've mentioned before it just blends together
with my own personal work and yeah like it's been fun it's definitely been massively inspiring and honestly like my day has gone really well and I guess I can't wait for what tomorrow has to bring.
