100 Random Facts About Me

It is the last day of May 2018 and if you have noticed, I have blogged almost every day this month (except for 10^th May). I didn’t take up any challenge to post daily. The only reason for it was ‘being consistent and persistent’. Over few years, I have developed the habit of procrastination which has impacted grossly. It is not laziness but pushing things for later on.

Blogging every day slayed the habit of procrastination (to some limit). Though few of the blog posts I had already written and published on Instagram, none of the blog post was scheduled. I made an attempt to visit here every single day.

Saying that I want to bid adieu this month by sharing 100 random facts about me. Seriously! The thought of coming up with 100 was overwhelming.
