It's so difficult to restart
Oct 27, 2008
It's an idle afternoon on one of the lucky Mondays. It's a holiday on the occasion of Deepawali and I am getting bored here. Suddenly, I thought of my blog and came back to visit it after really long time and felt so nostalgic about it that I sat to write something....
Life was so different last year when I was in School and I had all the time in the world to blog. Even though I had so many assignments to prepare, presentations to make and classes to attend, I always used to get time for blogging.
Now, it's different. My mind is always occupied with something at work. Often times, these are topics on which I can not blog (or should not blog). I am attending some conference calls or replying to someone's email. People always reply back for you to reply again in such a short time (thanks to blackberry age!). You are caught in a perpetual cycle of mails, calls, and meetings.
But I see a lot of professionals who get time for blogging. What am I missing here? What am I not doing right? If I love to write, why am I not getting time to do so? or is it that I am getting time, but not setting the priorities right?
Well, all these questions needs some introspection and I will get back with answers. 2008 was too uneventful for my blog. Just 13 posts (including this one!).
Let's see how does 2009 (still 2 months to go) behave....I am sure I will go find a meaning for my blog in 2 months...Till then, please hang on!

It is important to write to keep the big and the small picture correct. It might be difficult to restart, but worthwhile. You might keep a diary and scribe your thoughts there whenever you get a fresh thought. Sometime later you just cut and paste the stuff on the blog.

This is not only happen on you but most of the blogger. Those blogger able to keep making post either they are full time blogger or hire/get guest blogger. It is very diffecult to arrange time after working. I have leave my blog for quite long time due to lack of time
