Now page is created

What is a "now page"?

My "now page" is created at here. This page tells you what I am focused on at the time of writing this page.

Why I created a "now page"?

Recently I often get to know new people not only from tech industries but also from other community. Colleagues at a small startup I'm helping at weekends, local parental commmunity, Japanese community, friends of friends, etc.

Having my own now page is really useful when I introduce myself to such new people. Even though I do not share the link, writing and keeping this page up to date is useful to keep my memory fresh. Of course I sometimes share the link, especially talking with new friends that I come across online.

Keep Your Priority Updated

This is not the only reason why I created my own now page. Updating the now page gives me an opportunity to think about this question: "What am I up to these days? What am I focusing on right now?".

These are important questions to keep being focus on your "right" things. Life is short. I prefer living in the present, not in the past nor in the future.

By updating my now page, I consider and prioritise what I'd like to achieve in the following months. This is another implicit but essential reason why I need my own "now page".
