Becoming a blogger 

 Challenges : 

 I am 22 years old south Indian hence defiantly you will correctly guess me as an engineering   graduate . Yes , you have correctly guessed it , am an electrical engineer . From the exposure that I   have gained from my college , I always wished to become an online writer . After reading more about   Jawaharlal Nehru , O V Vijayan , balachandran chullikkad and few more , these people had influenced   me a lot in my life , hence the fire in me always wanted to come out through the nib of a pen . But   then after the introduction of the smartphone , high - speed free internet , I find it more people to be   online hence that made me a reason to be in online . My challenge is to become “ an impactful   blogger among the youngsters of India . ” Why I took “ writing blogs ” as a challenge is because for a   long time , I did not know where to start my work from and what would be the tone of the writing ,   serious or funny , now I think it ’s the right time , I wanted to put in all my ideology and my thought   into it , but I was afraid it would be very boring or sound too philosophical for young people of India . 

 Selection : 

 So , after listening to the four design thinking technique lectures , I selected the “ Story Telling   Technique ” . It struck me that I can make short stories in my blog for each chapter as it has an   emotional connection to the reader as well as to create a fan base for my blog as well . 

 The video in “ week 2 lecture ” about storytelling gave me 3 ideas . The first one – “ Know your   audience , where do they come and what they need ” . So , I thought I must meet both accomplished   adult those having the same line of though a mine , insecure women and men and to meet many   youngsters to hear their stories first so that my blog will be more realistic , covering different real   stories and not just mine though . The second idea – “ Clear sequence of events”- So I thought I can   take the reader through a journey of life from young to old age slowly covering the economic   imbalances that society faces and reason of which being lifestyle difference . The third idea- “ Create   suspense questions and answer them ; do n’t leave them hanging ” – Now I thought I should give hard   facts and real solutions to help youngsters to understand the hardcore reality of the life that is faced   by the other section of the society and make them think about the society and people and which   holistically result in the development of India in a micro scale . 

 Application : 

 I have successfully started a web blog , and blog started with a strong revolutionary poem and which   had got some appreciation within my peers . Whenever I do my brainstorming I keep my friends in   my mind , mainly those who have a different ideology or those who have no interest in these things .   Whenever I tried to write I will make sure not to hurt anyone and make all understand my line of   thought and will try to give a spark in my vision of though . Next phase of the idea is to talk to elders   and experienced personality and try to extract their life and make them in an interesting format for   the younger generation which will include mainly the hardship that they have gone through in their   life . Next is to talk to peers and understand their hardship they have gone and make it a poem or   short stories for the generation that yet to come and read . 

 Insight : 

 The insight I gained from applying the storytelling tool is the life in the writing . My challenge was   “ impactful writing ” that can keep the reader attentive and interested till the end of the blog and   wanted the readers to understand my perspective to an extent . Repetitive reading is also what I   wanted so that the reader can refer to the blog at times of crisis and re - assure them self that it can 

 be solved by their effort . So my long term goal is like to have real - life stories in my blog which will   help the readers to feel like “ I CAN DO IT ” and so to spread my ideology to their younger generation   who will be the backbone of the country . 

 Approach : 

 With the same “ Story Telling design tool ” , I would like to conduct workshops for youth of the   country mainly from lower section of the society and conduct workshops for family as a whole and   help them to understand their basic rights in the society and the hardship that they indirectly faces   and will peach that education is the ultimate goal to get success in any society . In the workshop I   would like to use the other three design thinking tools viz ; Visualization , Mind Mapping and Learning   Launch . My inclination to helping youngsters would grow more as my blog gets successful . I would   like to really connect with my readers and learn the truth from them . I would like to be more   empathetic , bring like minds together and help the society at large . I would work towards re- establishing the life of the youth and then my country ; although the scale might be small the   intention is big
