Bye 24 - Hello 25
I haven’t been too active on my blog for the past couple of months. Call it lack of motivation, life altering situations, and a general “air out of the balloon”-scenario. All of them applies to my lack of content here. However, i would like to change that now, and come back to regularly posting - like i did in the beginning.
Just a couple of friends, walking the streets of Berlin - Summer 24’
One of the mistakes i did, is that i got carried away. I posted with too much intensity, eventually making this feel like a chore more than a fun spare time activity. I tried to incorporate much activities, and also educational content. This blog was meant to be a place where both entertainment and learning would come together and eventually create a community that could sustain itself somewhat.
My realization over the past couple of weeks (that has now turned into months) is that this was rather farfetched.
From now on, i will try to get better at posting; and including you guys in my weekly stuff. Be it “professional” or personal. This place is meant to function as a ventilation of thoughts, dreams and goals, as well as a kind of diary. I will maintain the Technical Blog as well, but it will not be followed up with the intensity that it had. The momentum of both the personal and technical aspects will be changed remarkably compared to where it once was, but i do believe it is for the best.
2024 - The year of travel
2024 was the year that i traveled a ton compared to my previous years! Way more than i ever have done during a single year: England, Iceland, Germany and the Czech Republic. Traveling with colleagues, with my younger brother and a group of friends. Meeting new people, hearing new languages, and experiencing some cultural differences. I believe that all the above mentioned, is what makes us evolve as humans. Experiencing all of this, is what will make our lives richer.
The new year
This year will bring many changes to my life. I will let it unfold on this blog, and hopefully be able to settle in nicely over the coming months. Sometimes, we need to make big changes in our lives. I am a firm believer of the fact that we’re all responsible for our own lives. The outside world will affect us, but how we react and how we “play our cards”, is all up to us.
2024 was great in many ways. I launched two games, and reached over 130k downloads on Google Play. It has been a steep learning curve, but fun as well. I have started on a Master’s degree in Digitalization, and at the very brink on the year, signed a contract regarding my “career” personally. Stay tuned for that. Much is yet to be decided, and i have some tough decisions to make; but i believe that i will be able to make the right calls, when the time comes.
I would like to wish you all a great new year. Go get it!
