2021 Retrospection

  • There is pleasure in learning, exploring new territories. Automotive / Telematics was interesting this year
  • Getting things into production, making ideas work - Good exposure to Retail / Forecasting implementation
  • How Analytics can be used for Application performance optimization - I loved Air Crash Investigation type Analysis :)
  • Expanding more on vision in Agriculture, Fashion - Fun to work with data unavailability, connecting many missing dots
  • Always learning tech seems a bit away, Time to code vs Time to focus on domain vs Time to pick up leftover areas balancing - Docker, Kubernetes, AWS, GCP, ArgoCD, So many things can't master all. Sometimes I feel am I a software technician who knows to operate or someone who knows things and how it works
  • Work-Life balance It happens sometimes that is the flavor in consulting
  • I could not travel as much as I wanted to, Always things keep running in mind, to-do, how I want to plan out
  • A bit more need to diversify learning, financial independence, making smart investments
  • Need to cut down on food, healthy lifestyle, Hope to retire early soon
  • Personal front things remain as is, Life sometimes goes faster not being able to balance all aspects

In the end, You learn, you grow, you unlearn, and Keep going!!!

Some memories, some regrets, some lessons!!!

Keep Going!!!
