Tell HN: After years of meandering through the tech world,I take a diff course
After years of drifting with the flow and daring against the flow of programming and technology river, through trying to catch up with new languages, frameworks, tools and technologies, I feel numb and tired. I feel a bit inadequate and overwhelmed. Hence, I have decided to divert my attention for some time to other activities, so that my obsession with technology does not cause me panic attacks and I don't feel lagging behind the world full of ultra-intelligent hackers.
I, an avid HNer, for at least two months, decide to:
1. Not learn anything new in languages, tools or technology. Focus on the tasks at hand at work and get them done, nothing more nothing less.
2. Not get overwhelmed and depressed with how much there is to know in the world and how much others know more than I do
3. Focus my attention on blogging, tech or non-tech, at a professional level (not necessarily professionally)
4. Focus my attention on my financials, which are not bad, but scattered and untracked
5. Focus my attention on StackOverflow in answering questions as much as possible
6. Travel around as much as possible and talk to people about anything other than technology
7. Exercise and meditate a lot!
