Vishal — SWOT Analysis 1

Mission — To be better than the person I am right now, to look at myself with fulfilment and gratefulness once I reach my 30s.

While these are the updates that I acheived for these 2 days, Id like to continously improve and evolve in this journey, both professionally and personally. Suggestions and critics are very much welcomed from everyone.

GOOD THINGS :

1. Professional : I seeked to learn new things such as System Designs, Designing an abstract system from start, 1–2 new technologies, MVC Patterns and how they work.
2. I proactively explored how other developers sort their time and how much effort, time and experience it takes to become a mater at one thing.
3. Attended meetup on Kibana (An Elastic Search at the Microsoft Office, 2nd June,2023 4:30pm IST). Learnt the basics of how deployments on VM is a pain in the ass , how K8s, Helms can help strengthen the deployments especially when the scale is large, such as a holiday period. Got to hear amazing talks from the folks at Devtron and Elastic search. Got to learn how security rules are being written from the data that is logged from Elastic.
4. Got a great day to celebrate my 24th birthday (1st June). Amazing swags, cakes and gadgets by my near and dear one (thanks for that!).
5. Understood that how important the incubation period for a deployment matters in work.
6. Couple of new courses on SysDev, .NET being targeted to completed within the upcoming 2 days.
7. Taking on tuitions to the second year student — itseems its going good on Maths end :)
8. Gargening : While I am a pot and cup gardener, just proud to show off to the public that ladies finger, morning glories are grown over my compound (lollll…..)

NOT SO GOOD:

1. Incubations not working well, often a questioning/communication problem with “what can the current work also mean?”. While this is challenging to solve, definitely I can target breaking down the big pizza into smaller bites and focussing on one thing at a time. Some communication courses should be taken up to emphasize the need to be a good communicator (infact in all stages of life).
2. Being a little restrictive to take up critics : Personally observed, not being reported by anyone, just a personal opinion to welcome everything as it comes.
3. Hands On : Specially in .NET and Node, i seek to a little be lazy to participate in hack-a-thons proactively.
4. Schedule — Sleep & wake cycles are messed up with the current routine, will be working to improve for the next 2 days.
5. Improvement in general OOPs, Algorithms and Linux — figured out this when I was heasitant to take up MIT tests.
6. Stop worrying of future work and to be balanced and to think positively — Often I stumble thinking over the future work (that is it complicated? can I do it? ….). Lots of its and buts being a weed for me to grow, again to emphasize on knowing myself better).

NEXT GOALS AFTER SEEING ALL THESE …..

1. Work Priorities and learning from them. — Courses and Actions, mentorships and mentoring, so on….

2. Contribute to SOLIDs, SysDev arch, .NET

3. Open Source Devtron contribution

While I will again keep the next post very descriptive of what will happen in next 2 days, this is an initial version of it….
