Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: What's a /now page?
This is inspired by a movement started by a guy called Derek Sivers. I love the idea of a focused page, that is easy to type and find.
Read about it here, and I also highlight that the origin story behind this idea is π₯too!
Q: How does it differ from the "about" page?
The idea of this page is to address two main questions (that I get all the time):
- "What are you up to these days?"
- "I would like to align with your interests, can you help me with this?"
I use this page as a self-check on myself. Recently coming back to it has let me refresh what I was thinking just a month ago (boy, do I need a dose of FOCUS).
So if you do get referred to this page, don't take it personally. I do acknowledge your kind connection but just don't have the mental capacity to act on it now (perhaps in the future!).
The about page is a more historical viewpoint with an emphasis on timelines. I might be working on something tangential at any point, so this page is a nice section for things. (And saves you a a minute or two of scrolling past a story to get to present-day events).
I try to keep this page updated, and it personally helps me prioritize what's happening currently. Whenever I think of taking up another project, or am shifting/pivoting my direction of focus - I can come back here and review everything.
