learning in public is not about expertise or perfection. Learning in public is an honest and open way to document your progress from a beginner to an advanced learner. Even though you’re not an expert, sharing your learning process in public helps to educate those who find your content.

Sharing yourself and your learnings online is scary. However, you can choose to stay scared OR receive the benefits waiting on the other side, such as an improved skillset, a larger network, and a strong portfolio

Don’t wait until you have the ideal camera, deploy the final version of your project, or become a better writer; that robs you of the benefits of learning in public.

it’s harder to control the direction of your career when you are waiting for other people to advocate for you. Building your brand via learning in public is a form of self-advocacy. If you cringe at self-promotion, I’ll ask you this question: what’s the point of being a good programmer if nobody knows?

People who grift often have little experience or skill regarding a particular concept, but they pretend they’re experts. They build an audience of unsuspecting individuals and then sell inaccurate content to their audience members. This is wrong and unethical. Instead, you can genuinely admit that you don’t know, but you’re learning. Approach learning in public as a way for you to build your skills. Pretending to know and understand concepts leads to embarrassment and even legal trouble.

To choose between platforms, think about your most comfortable medium. For example, I’ve always liked expressing myself through writing, so I decided to learn in public through Twitter. Eventually, that evolved into writing blog posts. When I wanted to challenge myself, I decided to try streaming. Then, I gained more confidence speaking at conferences. It was a gradual process for me.
Importancia de acercarse al proceso de manera gradual y por las vías que te hagan sentido.
