... it being International Women's Day today, I was asked "If you could meet your younger self at the start of your working life, what advice would you give?" Took me back to a talk and blog post a few years back. Sharing it here, for all of it means as much today as it did then!

Am finally setting up my own blog! Yippee!!

After messing around with the admin panel for the last hour, I arrive at a point, where I may as well put up my first post. All these years of procrastination have finally culminated in someone in office goading me to start, another colleague setting up the basics for me on this very personalized domain name that I have owned for years now, and of course my own desire to begin writing at some point in my life.
