Setting the Stage

Today, I found myself at the starting line again. A meeting, a team, a new space where we are setting the foundation for something in AI learning.

I'm not the strongest coder. I'm not the most technical person in the room. But I’m here — willing to learn, willing to build, willing to try.

During the meeting, we discussed how we could introduce ourselves, assigned tasks, and started shaping the bigger picture. It wasn’t about proving expertise — it was about planting seeds.

And somewhere in the back of my mind, I remembered something I heard a long time ago — from older, wiser voices: "If you have an idea, honor it. Treat it as something valuable. Not everyone dares to dream, and even fewer dare to build."

That advice didn’t come from today’s meeting. It came from a different part of my life. But today, it echoed louder than ever.

I’m stepping into unknown territory, and yes, that means facing failure — but not falling into "failure mode." Today, failure felt more like a doorway than a dead end. An invitation to get messy, to stumble forward, to build something that might just matter.

At the beginning. On the edge of what I don’t know yet. Still daring to step forward.
