Starting A Personal Website
Proverbs 27:17 - “As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another”.
I just started this personal site after reading Kuai Ser Leng's sharing on the advantages of doing this. To regurgitate his points below.
The six benefits are:
It helps you develop your own ideas - Become a better writer and communicating your ideas
It helps your professional life - Interview panels google your name and talks about your interests
It leads to connections - people all over the world may reach out to you
You expose yourself to interesting opportunities
You can have a lot more impact - having an internet presence improves your networking (moving out of your village), massively impact your area of work which is far more than sitting in your village engaging one-on-one
You can monetise it - it acts as a serendipity vehicle that even while you are sleeping your work is doing its work
