My Baby Steps Towards a Greener Tomorrow.

Recently I have been an active contributor to various articles here on LinkedIn especially on “Corporate Sustainability, Circular Economy, and Energy Transition”.

I am enthusiastic about these topics, therefore as I learn and discover more about them, I feel indebted as well to share with others and create a ripple effect of knowledge and information.

Well, you might have probably hit upon my posts here on LinkedIn, X, or Instagram.

I bet when you are asked about Edwin, two or three things pop into your mind, “Writing, inspiration, and storytelling”.

Yes, you are very right. ?

I am so obsessed with those trios, that I call them, “The WIS”.

But there is another part of Edwin that you may know little about or not at all.

A Professional Chemist, and upcoming sustainability and circular economy expert.

For so long I had an itch for writing and telling stories for the betterment of the mother planet Earth as I write for people and prosperity. ?

I strongly believe that our success in life and business will be of impact if they reflect the true essence of sustainability which means, “Meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs,” as defined by the United Nations Brundtland Commission 1987.

But, let me tell you something.

Starting a Newsletter about sustainability was part of my 2023 Agenda. ?

However, I have been experiencing Imposter Syndrome and procrastinating day by day. ?I felt I was not knowledgeable enough, and not prepared enough to start writing and talking about this topic.

Thanks to collaborative articles from LinkedIn.

I began to answer and contribute my ideas to every question that I felt I knew something little about it.

In the beginning, I was down because my contributions had very little engagement.

I wanted to quit, but I reflected on my WHY which was so bold enough to let me stop writing.

Guess what!!

After contributing to more than 10 articles consecutively, people started to pay attention to my contributions.

Engagement rose and my confidence soared unexpectedly.

As I was revisiting my diary earlier this week, I was surprised at the plans I wrote which I didn’t even try to put into action including, “Starting Newsletter on Sustainability.” ??

I said YES.

No matter what, I must start, even if only two Saturdays remain before bidding farewell to '2023'.

Therefore, I welcome you to subscribe to this newsletter and be part of my journey of learning, discovering, and exploring new ideas and insights about sustainability.

Thank you.

I'm thrilled to have you on board, and I can't wait to share exciting updates and valuable content with you.

Cheers!

Edwin FM.
