“The only victories which leave no regret are those which are gained over ignorance.” Napoleon Bonaparte
As I write this at 1:00 in the morning, having played around for a few hours with the various features of this website, it’s truly hit home how little I know about this medium. I’ve dabbled in web design before (on a very superficial level), but it seems that managing something as simple as a blog where almost everything is already done for me is quite a formidable task. The amount of customization at my fingertips is indeed quite impressive, however as I don’t have the know-how to use it all, it means nothing to me. It’s quite frustrating to know that there’s so much I could do- if i wasn’t utterly ignorant of how to do it.
Despite the unsettling blow to my ego I am certainly not discouraged- far from it. I am now motivated to show this site who’s boss, and plan to figure out each and every thing this blog is capable of. After having considered myself a master of technology for so long, I would be remiss to give up after the first day. After all, I’m writing this blog to learn, and the less I know now the more I can learn later. I’ll try to remind myself of that as I move forward, and keep from letting any frustration get the better of me.
