Hi there, and welcome to Project Reset!
This is the beginning of a journey—a year-long experiment to pause, reset, and rediscover what life has to offer. For most of my life, I’ve been caught up in the routine of work, deadlines, and responsibilities. As a web developer in my mid-30s, I’ve spent years creating things for others, but now it’s time to create something for myself.
One of the key skills I want to develop during this journey is writing. To be honest, writing has never been something I naturally gravitated toward—but that’s exactly why I want to learn it. This blog is a way for me to practice putting my thoughts into words, share my experiences, and, hopefully, get a little better at expressing myself along the way.
Why Project Reset?
I decided to take a year-long break from work to focus on exploring, learning, and reconnecting with the things that bring me joy. I’m fortunate to be in a position where I can take this step back, and I don’t take that for granted.
This blog is my digital journal—a space to think out loud, share progress, and reflect on the ups and downs of this unique chapter in my life. It’s not about polished perfection or strict deadlines. I don’t have any specific plans about how often I’ll post or what exactly I’ll write about. This is an open-ended experiment for me to explore writing as a craft.
If my thoughts or experiences resonate with even one person or inspire someone to embrace their own reset, that will mean the world to me.
What to Expect Here
Over the coming weeks and months, I’ll document:
- The skills I’m learning.
- The challenges I’m facing.
- The small (and big) discoveries that come with stepping out of my comfort zone.
You might find posts about personal growth, creativity, and maybe even reflections on books or random thoughts that inspire me. I’m keeping this space flexible—just like this year is for me.
A Fresh Start
“Hello, World!” feels like the perfect title for this post. In coding, it’s often the first output when starting a new program. For me, this blog is a new program—a fresh start to embrace curiosity, creativity, and change.
Thank you for stopping by and being part of this journey. Whether you’re here out of curiosity, inspiration, or just by chance, I hope my story encourages you to take a pause and reset in your own way.
Let’s see where this year takes us!
