Today is a special day for me as I celebrate my ¼-millennium experience. I know I have not lived for 250 years. How then could I have such a long experience? This article marks my 250th article for BizCatalyst 360°. Each article is worthy of a year’s experience,
Let me explain why. The modest average number of views shared on LinkedIn exceeds 2000 views. Assuming it is 2000 views times 250 articles, you get half a million views. The core value is in the number of comments exceeding 60/article. Multiplication by the number of posts gives 15.000 comments. Imagine how much I learnt by simply reading and pondering on those comments.
Even better is the number of posts from ideas inspired by those comments. My estimation is that 35% of my posts resulted from inspiring comments from readers. This required me to do more research and learn more.
A post is not only a post. It is the opportunity to get exposure to different ideas. Sharing comments offers a great means to get exposure to new ideas.
The richness of this experience climaxed by finding a way to unlearn, learn and relearn. This process keeps the mind fresh and energized.
I take this opportunity to thank all dear readers who made my learning journey a worthy one. I also want to extend my thanks to Dennis Pitocco and his staff for their great hosting and production of my posts.
To be living is to be learning. This is what made my life worthy of ¼-millennium years.
