Day One, learning to renew and feel fresh:

satyam’s journal
2 min readApr 4, 2021

It’s 05:11am, Easter Sunday. I don’t remember the last time I wrote properly for a public audience. I’m excited to be writing again, although, in this case, once again, the audience is likely no one. Part of me is tempted to go all in on this tangent: Who do you write for? Who should you write for? Who should you work for? Who should you live for?

I don’t want to articulate or try to articulate my answers just yet. Instead, allow me to introduce myself:

  • I’m 21 years old. In my first year of university after a gap year and a foundation year (I really am a square shaped under-achiever, huh?).
  • I live in -actually, if I told you where I lived, that would give it all away, so I’ll tell you where I go to university, drum roll please… … … London!!! I’ve not explored that place nearly enough unfortunately. Hopefully this summer I will.
  • I’m trying to think about: What happened to the idea of a blog with eclectic updates? I remember writing some long form notes from my conversation with Vinay Gupta. I remember writing great end of week learning journal entries. I remember planning to learn things. Why have I been so numb as of recent? I do not know.
  • I’m high right now. Carbon courage (monoxide probs lol).
  • I’ll disclose more as time goes on. Maybe this will be the place that I learn to truly write.
  • I’d like to remind myself of one key principle with regards to which I always end up in pain when I forget that principle: Always be learning. Always be trying, doing something new, stretching. Routine can incorporate that. Get on it.

On to the next episode I guess. Until then,

name-undecided..this will be a pseudonymous account
