I’m Back…Maybe

Because I have even more energy and free time now that I have two kids.

It’s been almost a year since I’ve posted to this blog and boy have things changed…literally, but that’s for another day.

Looking back at the archives, I am actually amazed I created 18 entries. Granted, any legit blogger could rip off this many articles in her sleep, but given the low expectations I had when I started (and by low expectations I mean none), this is definitely an accomplishment worthy a self-congratulatory plug: so go ahead Sumip and Treat Yo’ Self!

In retrospect, I guess the reason why I stopped posting was that life got in the way. Actually, this is an extremely weak argument since by definition, life always gets in the way, so let me try again. Perhaps a better reason is that I lost momentum and inertia took over. I am amazed by how much creating others are able to do despite having equally, if not more, hectic lives (see: my former Wharton professor Adam Grant, for example), so I’m pretty much just making excuses at this point.

Anyways, I don’t know how many people actually read my articles, but at more than a few social gatherings a friend would mention that he or she enjoyed reading my blog. Collectively, they were probably just being polite, but the complimentary words did mean a lot and has served as a motivating factor to try and bring this back.

Hopefully, I’ll be able to dust off the cobwebs and continue creating some entertaining content for my 10 or so readers out there…though there’s a “non-zero probability” that I publish no more entries after this one.

Stay tuned!
