Reutilising the resources ...

It's almost 1 month since my last post, after so much contemplation about what I need to do to stay consistent, I think I should write daily. Both code and articles.

Sometimes, it becomes a necessity to stop overthinking and start analysing onto how one can make the full use of the resources that one has. Our brain only has a limited amount of energy and it should not be wasted into overthinking the things which we don't have control over.

I had been in this state of chaos about how and when will I gain confidence on my technical abilities now that I have 7+ years of experience. I bought many books, subscribed to many newsletters and blogs to keep myself updated but the only thing I was actually doing was hoarding the materials. I was not making good use of them. 

I need clarity on how I should proceed. I have few Udemy courses enrolled and half completed. 

I have few books with few chapters read, and few github repositories in my starred list to be reviewed and understood.

One thing that I must first ask myself is, why all this effort ? What is my purpose behind all this ? 

To be honest with myself, I think I lack the confidence one has to feel in himself when he has so many years of experience in this field, and this is because I never consistently studied/worked on my art.

I saw it as a burden, rather than as a hobby and passion. And since this is my source of income and food on my table, I must be respectful to it.

Starting today, I will work on getting better everyday. I have found a good source of mastering my art form and should devote the rest of this month to it. 

I know I might lose focus, but I have to be consistent this time. Then only I will be able to see the results of my efforts.
