Why I'm Starting a Blog


It’s a beautiful season. Over the last decade I’ve amassed a wealth of knowledge. It’s been a fun journey of learning. I’m grateful for the opportunity that I’ve had at the organizations I’ve worked at to feed my curiosity.

But lately I’ve begun to feel… obese with knowledge. I’m collecting, but not donating. I’ve become like the Dead Sea– always taking in, seldom giving out.

I crave to share, yet I fall short on my usage of social media platforms. And the day-to-day of work doesn’t always provide the opportunity to share my knowledge to the degree I’d like to.

That’s why I’m taking on a couple of projects. 1. Building this Blog. 2. Starting a Coaching Business.

One more thing. In collecting knowledge, a few years ago I started something called a Zettelkasten. While it’s not large, yet, by any means. It’s significant enough to become very valuable, particularly when combined with the power of modern AI.

Couple that with the latest Markdown Editor of choice, Obsidian, and the modern toolbox is unmatched. The power of Knowledge Management has become ever-important and the future of Collaborative Intelligence has me giddy.

If I lost you those last couple paragraphs, don’t worry. Hang tight. It’ll start to make sense soon.

If I’ve still got your attention, awesome. Let’s dive in.
