of a head full of thoughts!
About 7 years ago, I created a domain - “a head full of thoughts” because I have an endless amount of thoughts. each day. It ranges from what I can do next, what should I eat tomorrow? what should I eat now? what is my purpose?, how can I make this restaurant or small biz market themselves better? what are people doing right now in a different country? Which country’s music should I listen to next?
At that time when I created the domain, I only wanted to blog about daily life experiences, thoughts, learnings, music, culture, food etc. but I was in the “log kya kahenge” phase (translates to “what will people say?”), along with a busy hectic full-time job phase and then another set of thoughts of my brain asking me what if it doesn’t work?” It took a long time for me to accept that it is ok to do what you love doing, to re-program my brain to make it comfortable with this new journey and block the noise. Block it!
Fast forward to this year, when I was laid off from my full time job, my husband and a few of my closest friends encouraged me to start my own consulting business. One of my closest friends (who is my constant cheer leader), kept encouraging me to put those thoughts on a site, write write and write. Perhaps, these thoughts were trying to remind me of my own potential — A way to rebrand myself as a marketer who can help small businesses reach their customers and also a blogger who wants to write about experiences and stories.
Hence, to give an ode to a head full of thoughts, I have created a space in this site called “thoughts” These thoughts are of many things and hence they start with the word - “of” When you get to the thoughts page, you’ll see “thoughts of..” You see what I did there? :)
Also, I want to give a special thanks to everyone who supported me through this process, both near and far in a different continent. Sometimes life gets in the way but what I have learnt through this experience is to do what I love, block the noise in your head and stay focused with what you want to do. It can be anything you put your mind on. Start somewhere. :)
