I was having similar thoughts when I started blogging.

  • Am I expert enough to talk about this?
  • But someone has already written/recorded something about this!
  • What if my information is wrong? What will other people say?!

But, one day, I started writing blogs and now I have no plans of looking back.

Yes, my articles are not perfect and don't have a huge engagement but I am improving my technnical as well as writing skills as I go. This helps me learn deeply since I have to do research before publishing an article!

My advice is,

Just start. You will figure everything out later!

When you are writing, you are adding your unique prespective based on your skillset, experience and learnings. It makes your article different from any other article written on the same topic.

There is a famous quote from Stanley Kubrick - my favorite film director that resonates with our condition, I will put it here:

Everything has already been done. every story has been told every scene has been shot. it’s our job to do it one better.
