Blog Post 1/30-unedited

 

Start time: 8.45pm

I am reading one of my favorite people’s blogs and I came across an interesting article and idea. Ali Abdaal mentioned something on public journals and morning pages. What also came up here was chatting to Mathew Dicks, the author of Storyworthy and an expert in storytelling. He shared how he has been blogging everyday since 2003 and this gave me lots of ideas.

First I downloaded morning pages and I started sharing my first post on 8.45pm on a Sunday night. I am planning to write 500 words daily and also writing a blog post everyday. I don’t know if I will get that energy or drive to continue but the only way to Find out is by trying. Let me keep writing this post and maybe make it online without edits or delays. Coming up tonight is my first blog post pals, but what should I write on. Let me use Mathew’s example and generate my thoughts.

And here is where I start…..

I have been thinking about management and innovation lately. I have been thinking about design thinking and making projects come to life. I have been thinking about podcasts and rebranding. I have been having lots of doubts on many issues ongoing in my life right now. Let’s talk about all this, I don’t feel like they should be private anymore, let’s share what’s on my mind just like how much Facebook wants us to. 

What’s on your mind? 

My first job in Mogadishu is becoming a manager. I don’t only manage few of my friends but I am managing big plans for a big community. I have lots of ideas to impact our community and what a better time than now to turn all my thoughts into concrete actions. I am looking forward to turning different lights to a community that lived in the darkness. I know they only expect a small light to light their path but they definitely deserve different shades of lights to brighten their lives. Our community deserves its own people to think of them but not eat them out. I am blessed to have crossed this path now because I know together with my team, we will lit a whole world for our community. 

I might have had dreams of becoming a construction manager but then, right after I became one, I felt like I should be a community leader. I felt the happiness and the satisfaction it came with, I don’t see the time on the field or the less money I benefit, all I see is impacting one life everyday. Being a leader is not only enjoying the fame part, but it’s sweating in the game part and producing real results.

I feel like I have lots more to share and my words are coming to end. I will stop here for today and I will definitely write more words tomorrow Inshaalah.

Writing these, my friend is playing with his camera taking pictures beside me and I will definitely use of those images as a thumbnail for this. Thank you for giving me your time to read this and if you are still reading it, please stop now Lol, like it and if you enjoyed, share it on your pages. Thank you and be blessed always.

End time: 9.03pm
