Tip 4: A blogging daddy reflects on parenting

I have to admit to be less of a blogger previously as I was debating the need to keep my life private and be less judged by others. But a dad is a public figure in his home at least. And with blogging kids in the near future, its better to keep the records straight early on in your parenthood. In this information age, its no knowing what petty details are sought after or if you need to protect yourselves against a lawsuit in the future. :) As blogging enters every sphere of life be it, professional work blogs, hobby blogs, travel blogs and personal blogs - a daddy/parent blog is becoming necessary and probably much expected by the next generation of kids. As these days, blogs are becoming more specialized as much as all of life is, its a good practice to start a blog just on parenting or at least most of parenting.

I have been a strong proponent of "reflection on action" which leads to better action and have written an international research paper on it even. When we blog, we reflect upon our conduct and practices and even publish it for others to comment and further contribute towards improved conduct and practices. But, more so the act of reflecting and praying over it helps us to mentally evaluate how we plan to get more out of our daily experiences. Besides, learning from history is one of the two components of success. The other one being to have a desire and ambition to improve and to create something better for the world. And blogging can document these reflections and aspirations as an inspiration for children to read one day and learn and understand their daddy better and seek after success. Start blogging today. I probably started a little too late and have missed many tips in the first few weeks that I could not recollect now. Better late than never. And, never say never.
