A Humble Approach to Learning

One of the core values of this blog is a humble approach to learning and sharing knowledge. I firmly believe that no one person has all the answers, and that the best way to grow and improve is through collaboration and open discussion. That’s why I don’t claim to have the best or only way of doing things.

Continuous Learning

Instead, I invite you, the reader, to join me in this journey of continuous learning. If you come across a post where you know of an alternative or better method, I encourage you to share it in the comments section. By doing so, we can create a space where different perspectives and ideas can flourish, ultimately leading to a richer knowledge base for the entire IBM i community.

Reader Input

It’s important to note that many of the ideas for the posts on this blog come directly from questions and inquiries I’ve received from fellow IBM i enthusiasts like yourself. I believe in the power of sharing knowledge and helping each other grow. After all, it’s through the exchange of ideas and experiences that we can push the boundaries of what’s possible on the IBM i platform.
