Notes on engineering leadership, building products, and figuring out what matters.

Thinking and exploration time

We often explore life and its possibilities when we are free or when our busy schedule allows us to do so. The fact about life is that we need to explore it and understand it to increase our contribution. This needs to be intentional rather than waiting for it to happen.

For instance, we usually get better ideas and inspiration during our holidays. Because we don’t busy ourselves with day-to-day tasks, I observe this problem for myself, too. This year, I began setting aside specific times each day to explore different activities and topics beyond my usual routine.

Give it a try, and you’ll be surprised by what you will find.
