1. Any day is an Auspicious day to START.
Do not get stuck thinking when is the right time. Any time you have a topic in hand and the willingness to start is the right time.
For me, it started with helping my colleagues with customer documentations. Anything can be a trigger.
2. Find your NICHE
The topic IDEA is always around you. There are two possibilities,
1. You are good at something
2. You want to be good at something
These possibilities build your niche in the technical areas. Tap on what you want to learn or share. You got your topic.
3. You Need to READ To WRITE
Yes, It's hard to create value with writing without reading. Build a reading habit to write better. Start side projects to write using your first-hand experiences.
Reading and side-projects around a technical area give you ample ideas to write.
4. Your Writing Is Your Reflection.
You are unique, your style is unique, your expressions are unique, your writing will be unique too. Your writing style is a reflection of who you are.
Be AUTHENTIC. Inspiration is ok but No need to borrow the style. Your style gonna work.
