A snapshot memento of what I had on my Now Page while I was on sabbatical, from Jun 2023 to Aug 2025.
In June 2023 I left my job of 7 years in software engineering, and went on a sabbatical.
After 6 months, I realized that the main thing I want to focus on is: rewiring myself away from grasping for external validation of my work as a necessary component of my worth, and cultivating an internal wellspring of self-worth and self-love.
I recognize now that more achievements and other external things won’t truly satisfy me, and that satisfaction must come from within. So I’m working on that.
In the meantime, I’m doing creative work that I love.
