Welcome to my little corner of the internet, or as I like to call it drumroll… My Personal Website! It’s “personal” because I do my best to keep the work related stuff to a minimum (we all need a break from the daily grind, right?).
And no, I’m not an aspiring actor, photographer, or artist of any kind. I’m just your regular guy next door (hopefully keeping things a bit more fun than that sounds!) working in the IT industry after navigating my way through an Engineering degree and an MBA.
So, what’s the story?
I started blogging in my early 20s, but it took a few years for me to realize that blogging wasn’t just about documenting thoughts, experiences, and insights. For me, it was the pure joy of sharing.
From hosting my first website on Yahoo! Geocities (remember that?) to moving to 110mb.com when Geocities closed down, to experimenting with Blogger, and finally taking the plunge with my own domain — www.shoaibqureshi.in — sharing has always been at the core of this journey.
With social media making sharing the new normal, I was no longer that “weird guy” posting stuff online — everyone was doing it! Then came the rise of the “experts”, and blogging evolved into a business, with bloggers turning into authors, influencers, and content creators in their niches.
But for me, blogging has always been about the joy of sharing, not business. So, I never felt the pressure to niche down. Over the years, I’ve been fortunate enough to have readers and friends share their feedback and insights, keeping the dialogue going. Eventually, I branched out from text-based blogs to launch a YouTube channel and a Podcast — because why limit the sharing to just words?
A little more about me…
I’m passionate about Project Management, and I share my knowledge over at PMC Lounge. Outside of that, I’m into cardio (mostly running) and devouring good books.
Oh, and I do have a life beyond the geeky stuff! If you’re curious (and patient) enough to know more, let’s connect on:
If you’ve made it this far, I’m guessing you enjoy reading. My blog is patiently waiting for your attention. There’s more here too—like a short story I wrote called Doctor, Love (you can grab it for free here).
There are separate sections for some of my favorite Quotes, Shayari, and Books that might catch your eye.
If you are a creator yourself, check out the Resources I use to create content. And if you’d like to collaborate, feel free to reach out to Work With Me.
Hope you enjoy your time here. Feel free to explore and get in touch!
Cheers,
Shoaib
