2025 Midway - any progress?

#2025-5

Today, I am writing this to recap what I did so far this year and how the pace is. 

• Time management is difficult when you have kids.
• I am trying to accommodate as much as possible for my hustle, but still not satisfactory. 
• I forgot how much I have updated in the previous articles, but so far there are a very little progress on the action I wanted to perform this year. 
• Major milestones are:
• Registration of the corporation
• Registering for GST/HST
• Opening a Business account
• learning how to bookkeep my documents for the initial phase. 
• There are some of the technical progression. I have researched for the tech-stack and other paid services, which I need to run the website and work on building my idea. 
• I am trying to take life positively in all possible manners. 
• I started learning Python, django, javascript and doing some test projects and so far the progress is pretty good. 
• I am also learning on AI tools, which might be useful for me to enhance my site and generating some contents. 

So far, I am enjoying working in the new environment and I feel like I am blending in slowly from my end. Still there are a lot to do and lot of knowledge that can be gained.

The Fourth One

 #2025-04

This is my fourth post since the start of this year, and I am happy to share the progress on my blogging site and business ideas. 

EZ Operation Inc. has been successfully incorporated and I am able to search it in the federal incorporation searches.

Last week, there was not much progress and I am feeling like, I am losing the track. But after the confirmation email, I started working on the blog again and I feel like, I need to do a lot of more work to fulfil the dream. 

Blog is so far going well and I am trying to update quality contents. The mindset I am having now is. what would I search in case of such errors and I am clearing those instructions as much as possible. 

I was feeling lost in last 3-4 days and today, I am again picking it up. 

Hope for the best!!!

The Third Note

#2025-03

Today is 4th Feb 2025. Exactly 12 years ago I joined TCS and it was an amazing experience for me. 

First Job, First training, First time out of home as a Software professional. The day I might never forget. Today I am feeling a bit nostalgic and thinking about those happy moments I had. 

The Second note

#2025-02

This is for the first time in last 12 years, I kept going for 20 days, what I was planning to do for the new year. Every year within first two weeks I used to give up the resolution.

This year, I planned to put in small amount of time towards my blogging and a website that can be built on whatever I have learnt. So far I am able to contribute. Last year, I read Atomic Habits by James Clear, which has motivated me and gave me a new perspective in my personal goal. 

One thing I understood that, I can never reach to my goal until I take the first step. Every year I took the first step , then the second, then the third... by the time I reach 10 or 15.. I am back to zero again. 

Losing hope each year and starting the journey from the beginning, losing time and energy. Today when I look back, I can only see about losing a decade of small steps could have built at least the foundation. 

This year I took charge on my goals and I am trying to accomplish the smallest steps so that end of the year I dont regret of losing another year.

I wish this blog will be my Journal to lookback and measure the progress. it might not be quantifiable, but I would like to reflect back and see the progress. 

Introduction

Happy New Year - 2025

Like every other year, this year is no difference. I am trying to do something new. 

Look back to 2024:

• Became a father

From a boy to a man, and from a man to a father... Cant explain the feeling in words. I am terrible in English writing and so far, I have not written any blogs on my personal life.

I always wanted to put something in words/images so that someday I can look back and see the small progress of my life. I tried with Social Media, but I literally hated it as I grew up, I understood that Social Media is not something for personal tracking. 

I used to write diaries but when I left my home for college, I lost that habit. Then I learned life lessons from hostel days, and that is something I always cheer  for. 

Then I started working and eventually forgot about anything in life that I ever cared about. I forgot how I loved music, singing. I was travelling with friends and was feeling like the friendship is for lifetime and we all will stick together but wrong. Everyone started moving on so did I. 

Came to new country for work, started exploring the culture and hoping to go back some day to my home but not sure when. 

Got married, wonderful partner, millions of hopes, millions of dreams. We wanted to explore the world together, new places, new cultures. started with a few.

Now, the last year, having a baby, life has turned upside down now. All that used to matter in life seems less significant. Keeping the family safe and healthy is like the first priority, whatever it takes. 

I feel like, I am child again, revisiting my childhood, and just thought, what if, I could have listened to my parents, what if I finished those unfinished task, what if I kept doing all those once I thought meaningless. 

Maybe too late, but not yet, from this year, I am taking another oath to participate in all those unfinished tasks, that I was dreaming about.

Motivation cannot be external, it should be from inside. It is now or never. I dont want to regret in another 10 years saying the same as of today "What if"... "In case I started" .. "Why should not I.."...

Hoping for the best...
