# The First

Welcome to my Mirror!

I’ve been toying with the idea of writing down some thoughts on things I care about for some time now. I always thought: Besides (maybe) my immediate friends - who cares?! But then I realized that writing down these things will have a profound effect on my daily routine: By filtering what is important and what isn’t and condensing my ideas and opinions into written form, it forces me to focus on my different areas of interest on a regular basis while sharpening the information I gain on these topics at the same time.

But what ARE these areas of interest? Broadly speaking, **I plan to write about technology, web3, and gaming.** I have been personally involved in all of these areas for several years or decades, which doesn’t necessarily make me an expert in any of these of course. But I know my way around each topics and hopefully my shared thoughts will give you some insights or ideas for your own path!

I plan not to have a rigid posting schedule because that will just lead to the content getting worse over time. I only post if I think I have something somewhat relevant to publish.

Alright, I think that I created enough loopholes for myself to not feel bad if this is the last entry here. Please subscribe to be notified when (and if) I post again:

Thanks for reading and I hope to see you next time!

Best, Chris
